Friend

You know the world enjoys hurting you

Don’t let life keep getting you down

‘Cause I hate to see you feel this way

Even if you’d rather just frown

Others may pour salt in your wounds

Not even knowing that it stings

I want to be there to dull the pain

So that you’ll see what a friend can bring

CHORUS:

Sometimes we just need somewhere to be

Sometimes we just need someone to hold

Sometimes we just need some help on our way

Just know my friend, I’ll always take your load

Why do you want to be alone?

Well know that I’m a step away

Let me carry you through sun or rain

There’s no reason you should be afraid

My shoulder is here to rest your head

And I’ll always keep you on my mind

There’s no telling what you can do

So tell yourself you’re one of a kind

CHORUS

I’ll be there when you fall

And lift you up again

I’ll be there as your shield

When your world’s caving in

I’ll cry when you’re crying

So you don’t cry alone

I’m just a call away

Make sure to use that phone

CHORUS

CHORUS

My friend, I’ll take your load

My friend, I’ll take your load

My friend, I’ll take your load

I wanted to write something describing a true friend. These words could be your words to a friend of yours. It may be what a friend of yours says to you. Or maybe it could be the words of the best friend to each of us: the Lord.
