Somebody knows why I am tempted
somebody cares when things go wrong
somebodys love is always there to guide you
and make you strong

Lord I have a friend
he is above all others
his love is so far from others
eternal life is yours to know him
is deeper than the sea
savior devine, friend of mine

Lord I cannot tell how much I love him
I cannot tell all of my Gods love for me
I only know it measures deeper than the sea

Jesus alone can know my sadness
Jesus alone can bring me gladness
I´m filled with joy just because I know him
savior devine, friend of mine
but Lord I have a friend above all others
