A Friend In The World |
She always said the world was overrated |
And she couldn’t take the drama it created |
It’s a wonder that she didn’t wind up jaded |
From all the times she’s been let down |
Well, Mum and Dad split up when she was four years old |
And left the world as she knew it spinning out of control |
And she grew up feeling a hole in her soul |
Cause they were never around |
She said, «why's everybody always leaving? |
I just want someone to believe in |
And someone to believe in me» |
When you can’t find a friend in the world |
A friend in the world |
Love is reaching down |
When you can’t find a friend in the world |
A friend in the world |
You got one now |
I grew up in the glass house of a preacher |
Where every move I ever made was a feature |
And when you don’t always do what they teach you |
They always point you out |
But it’s just like TobyMac used to say |
«Some people gotta learn the hard way» |
And when I couldn’t outrun all the things I’d done |
I picked up the phone and my dad said, «son» |
When you can’t find a friend in the world |
A friend in the world |
Love is reaching down |
When you can’t find a friend in the world |
A friend in the world |
You got one now |
This is where the story gets crazy |
And this is the part that’s so amazing |
You see, the girl I sang about in the first verse |
Became my wife |
And there’s one last thing I’d like to mention |
We owe it all to the Author of redemption! |
Because He reached her life and He reached my life — |
And He’s reaching out now take a look around |
When you can’t find a friend in the world |
A friend in the world |
Love is reaching down |
When you can’t find a friend in the world |
A friend in the world |
You got one now |
