You Are My Friend / What a Friend We Have in Jesus - Patti LaBelle, Shirley Caesar

What a friend we have, we have in Jesus

All our sins and griefs to bear

Oh, what a privilege it is to carry, carry

Everything to God in prayer

You are my friend, my friend, I never knew till then

A friend, my friend, my friend, hold my hand, my hand

Might I say a word but I see your tears when I show my pain

The load you helped me to carry on, yes it does

Sometimes I feel I’m weak, feel like all my hope is gone

My future looks bright to me, yes it does

You are my friend

I never knew, I didn’t realize until then

You are my friend

I tried to find you every where I looked

But one day, I heard the Word of God

And I saw my friend

I go on

I go 'round, I go 'round, whoa

I’ve been looking around

And You were here all the time

I go 'round, I go round

I go on, whoa

I’ve been looking

And You were here all the time

I go on

I go 'round, go on, whoa

I’ve been looking around

And you were here all the time

What a friend we have in Lord

All my sins and grief’s to bear

What a privileged to carry

Everything to God in prayer

Been around, been looking around

Been looking around

I’ve been looking around

And you were here all the time
