My Friend, Jesus Christ

by Kristi Thomas

One day I went to church
My friends invited me
The preacher said some things
He seemed to know about me
He said that I could find
No peace within my life
And that is when I met this friend
His name is Jesus Christ

Oh Jesus Christ Jesus Christ
What a friend is He
He was born in Bethlehem
But now he lives in me
Oh Jesus Christ Jesus Christ
He's a babe no more
He died once for all our sins
But he lives forevermore

That day I went to church
I heard the preacher say
Someone here needs saving
Just come down and pray
I knew it was my turn
To answer the Lord's call
So running to the altar
Before Him I did fall

Oh Jesus Christ Jesus Christ
What a friend is He
He was born in Bethlehem
But now he lives in me
Oh Jesus Christ Jesus Christ
He's a babe no more
He died once for all our sins
But he lives forevermore

Ever since that day
He became my friend
I've known true joy and peace
And happiness within
I'll never be alone
He's with me to the end
No matter how rough the road
On His love I can depend

Jesus Christ Jesus Christ
What a friend is He
He was born in Bethlehem
But now he lives in me
Oh Jesus Christ Jesus Christ
He's a babe no more
He died once for all our sins
But he lives forevermore

He died once for all our sins
But he lives forevermore
