Story Behind the Song
This song was motivated by all the difficult times im my life, and how whatever happened,
Jesus was right there to see me through it.
I recorded it one night in my kitchen.
Lyrics
Thank You for being my friend
Cornelius White (c) 2003
Thank You for being my friend, when I needed one
with you I don't have to pretend, You've known me oh so long
and You know me.......even better than I know myself
For You see the real me..... that no one else sees
Yet You still love me.......in spite of myself
Thank You for sharing my good times
when there were two sets of prints in the sand
but when times got hard, You picked me up
and gently carried me in your hands
Lord you carried me in Your loving arms
Like a Father who comforts his child
until I was able to stand again
until I was able to smile
And I don't know the best way, to tell You how much I thank You
but You say, My dear child I love you,
and that's just what real friends do;
but if you really want to show your love for Me,
introduce me to all that you see;
and tell them, that I love them to,
and I died so they could be free
Thank You for being my savior,
Lord I thank you for being my friend
Lord, you are closer than my brother,
You're some one on whom I can depend
and when I need You Jesus,
I just have to call on Your name
Ohhh Jesus...... Sweet Emanuel.....
There's so much power in Your holy name
Thank You, thank You, thank You, thank You
thank You for being my friend
Lord I thank You, thank You, thank You, thank You
thank You for being my friend
and if I had 10,000 tongues to sing, that would not be enough to give you the praise;
so I'll present this old body a living sacrifice
and I'll server you for the rest of my days.
There's not a friend like the lowly Jesus, no not one, no not one
A friend in sorrow, a friend in need, and friend when I'm hurting, a true friend indeed .
