fairweather friend

I used to be like you / wondering where my next friend was / but now I have found an eternal friend / that will never leave me. / you too can be like me and have that friend that stays with you. / he will help you feel accepted when you have no earthly friend. /

chorus:
I have a heavenly friend that will help you. /
When no one else will be your friend. /
He will be an all-weather friend /
Never will He leave your side /
He’ll be your friend even when you have nothing. /

I was lucky / I was raised in a strict Christian home / but at the time I did not appreciate it / until I hit high school. / it was then I became a Christian / still such a baby in Christ. / my fair-weather friends had an influence on how I acted. / lucky for me one of my friends was a Christian. /

chorus

I have done many bad things / but this friend forgives me time after time. / I love Him. / I wish everyone could feel as good as I do. / you can if you invite Jesus into your heart. / all you have to do is ask Him in and you will live in heaven. / and you will have an eternal friend to help you. /

chorus 2x

Help yourself!
Invite Jesus in!
Help yourself!
Invite Jesus in!
