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 )
