[Verse 1]
Not deserving such a love
You showed Your love for me.
In when I yet in my sin
You sent Your Son to cover me.
Paid my debt with Your life,
a cruel death You died,
And then rose again to set me free.
[Verse 2]
I once, stood ashamed
of what a slave I've been
Yielded my mind, my time
and being to sin.
Not so now, for I stand,
no more condemned
Clothed in Christ
my High Priest, King and Friend.
[Chorus]
Cannot help but be amazed
What a Friend like this
He’ll carry your load
You won’t have to walk alone
Caught up in eternal bliss
What a Friend like this
He’s opened the way
That you could live again
What a Friend
[Verse 3]
You’ve Given me Your Word
Sent from Your Father
That when after You leave
You'll send another comforter
Who will never leave,
but guide me home to You
What a vision of security
(Repeat Chorus)
[Bridge]
He’s a Friend
Stays closer than all others
He’s a Friend
One who intercedes
He’s a Friend
None like the ones I’ve known before
For my sin
His blood was shed to cover me
[Chorus]
Oh I cannot help but be amazed
What a Friend like this
He’ll carry your load
You won’t have to walk alone
Caught up in eternal bliss
Such a Friend like this
He’s opened the way
That you could live again
What a Friend
[Ending]
What A Friend…
Ohhhh, ooohh, oohh
What, A Friend
