Best Friend lyrics

He's my best friend Aww but I didn't always know it Ya know people would try to tell me But I just wouldn't listen I was just caught up in the world Having a good time with my friends But ya know My woman was praying for me You see she knew I was in trouble Yeah and one day I was feeling real bad And I turned to the people I thought were my friends And you know I found out real soon I didn't have any friends And I started feeling real sorry for myself I was filled with self pity And ya know when you're filled with self pity You're just as empty as you can be And that was me I was ragged Jagged Tattered and torn I was filled with self pity Ashamed and forlorn The king of losers Was my claim to fame Yes loser was my middle name Then one day I heard someone speak of a friend And his words were glowing and kind And I thought to myself I don't have a best friend Not one name Would come to my mind Ohh ohh But my eyes started raining Ands the fire built up in my soul The empty vessel I had become Started filling to overflow And the spirit of God Spoke so clearly My child You are born again You are born again And I'm your best friend
