There Is a Friend

Luke Wood

From EP, a release with Justin Rizzo.

My dearest Friend, all my fountains are in You My dearest Friend, my whole world is found in You You know all things; You know that I love You more than life You know all things; You know that I love You more than life There is a Friend who’s closer than a brother And I owe You my life There is a Friend who’s closer than a lover But I can’t get close enough (to You) I’m Yours to take and break, but make me sensitive to You I’ve come too far to turn around now, there’s nothing I wouldn’t do To hear Your words of life, Lord, to be as close to You As any man has ever dared to come All I really want to do is find You All I really want to do is stay there when I do (Take me away)
