Who Are Your Friends and Whose Friend Are You?
how many men would ever allow their loving wife
to help another man during his time of personal strife?
how many people in this world can you claim
who would gladly call you a friend by name?
who are your friends and whose friend are you?
whom can you call on to help you get through?
are you even asking the right questions about your concerns?
are you even up to the challenge and can you even discern?
whose friend are you and are you a friend of God?
do you have a relationship with Him that's of the heart?
most men shy away from intimacy for don't like to make mistakes
most men have an innate fear that they don't even have what it takes
and loneliness becomes a state that they willingly embrace
no intimate friends in any given place
but what most men fail to even comprehend
is that God has been their friend from the beginning
everyone needs a true friend who will cut to the core
who won't sugar coat the truth and tell you what for
everyone needs a friend who will always be down
and no matter what's going on will always stick around
everyone needs a friend who'll look them straight in the eye
and tell them the what, the who, the when, the where, the how and the why
whose friend are you and who are your friends?
who can you trust and rely on when things come to an end?
Jesus is your brother, Jesus is your friend
for that is what He called you from the beginning
Jesus is your brother and Father God is your Dad
and they are the very best friends that you've ever had
so develop a relationship and get up close to God
get intimate with the Son by taking Him into your heart
He will never leave you and He'll always have your back
he will never forsake you nor knock you off of life's track
so turn to the Father and embrace the Son Jesus the Christ
make a friend of the Lord and you'll never be alone in life
