You ask me why I seem so happy--
With all of the trouble I've known,
Well there is someone that I go to---
I never face trouble alone
He's here when I wake every morning--
He walks with me thru the days end,
Come down to my church Sunday morning---
I want you to meet my friend
(chorus)
He's not my employer and he's not my boss--
You won't even see him, he died on a cross---
But if you are looking for comfort within,
I want you to meet my friend---
Now I know that you have your sorrows--
And you know that I have them too,
With all of the comfort he gives me---
I know he'll give comfort to you
He doesn't care if you are wealthy--
Or don't have a nickel to spend,
Come down to my church Sunday morning---
I want you to meet my friend
(repeat chorus )
