I need a friend I can really depend on
Not just someone funny or cool
Someone who follows the Lord just like I do
Don't wanna be the friend of a fool

Friendship is a gift from God
A gift I can choose
And I'm so glad He's brought me to you

Oh, I thank God for a friend like you
When I face a struggle you help me through
I know that your words will be wise and true
So I thank God for sending me
A friend like you

We always have fun when we're hanging together
There's so much that we like to share
Trusting the Lord and respecting each other
I know you'll be honest and fair

We can always work it out when we disagree
'Cause you love the Lord just like me

Oh, I thank God for a friend like you
When I face a struggle you help me through
I know that your words will be wise and true
So I thank God for sending me
A friend like you
