The Friend I Wanted

*Best friend*

On a shiny day
With a little pray
I asked for a friend
A friend who can be mine
To wipe my tears
To make me cheer
To show me way
Whenever I say
I asked the lord to send a friend 
Just the one who can be mine...

The one with deeds 
Who can lead
Make me feel 
That I have a zeal
A friend to listen me talk
Whenever I speak 
Whenever we walk
Whenever we share
I wanted a unique friend
Just the one who can be mine...

A friend of cheers
Who can wipe my fear
Make me feel safe
Whenever I feel bad
To make me smile
To give me care
A humble friend 
To tolerate me
I prayed for a cheerful friend 
Just the one who can be mine... 

Oh my God
I'm so thankful to Lord
He sent a friend 
More than I asked for
Who can bear with me
Whenever I stir his mind
Who is ready to fight
Whenever I am in fright
He gave me more than I ever asked 
For you are the friend He sent...
