Friend Forever (Words & Music by Charles Lutz)

March 12, 2007

I found a brand new feeling; it comes when you’re around.  It’s one that says I’m happy and takes away my frown, and now I’ve solved the mystery of how friends come to be; they’re bound by special meanings - the things you cannot see; but I can still recall the time when I first saw your smile and how it warmed a place here in my heart, and though the day was long ago it seems like yesterday.  It’s nice to know a smile can’t fade away.

Well, I wish I could be a friend (could be a friend) who does and says it all (who does it all); the kind that is unfailing to catch you when you fall (catch you when you fall); to love just like my Master (the Lord is love), to give and understand, well, that’s the love I’m learning (I know He’s teaching me along the way), and I know He holds my hand.  You’re my friend forever and I’ll tell you that it’s true, ’cause God’s the great provider of friends.  We’ll stay close together, and I love you through and through, and though I don’t deserve it He gave a very special friend in you.
