I Want You To Meet My Friend - Larry Sparks, Tom T. Hall

You ask me why I seem so happy

With all of the trouble I’ve known

Well there is someone that I go to

I never face trouble alone

He’s here when I wake every morning

He walks with me thru the days end

Come down to my church Sunday morning

I want you to meet my friend

He’s not my employer and he’s not my boss

You won’t even see him, he died on a cross

But if you are looking for comfort within

I want you to meet my friend

Now I know that you have your sorrows

And you know that I have them too

With all of the comfort he gives me

I know he’ll give comfort to you

He doesn’t care if you are wealthy

Or don’t have a nickel to spend

Come down to my church Sunday morning

I want you to meet my friend

He’s not my employer and he’s not my boss

You won’t even see him, he died on a cross

But if you are looking for comfort within

I want you to meet my friend
