You Chose To Be My Friend ... with Lyrics (Cover by Johnny Bowling)

You Chose To Be My Friend ... with Lyrics (Cover by Johnny Bowling) Brother Gerald Crabb is the author this song. It is one of my favorites. I felt like recording this song and I pray it blesses a weary soul along their way. Verse I You were there for me through it all, when everyone around said I would fall You were my friend, you believed in me through the good times and the bad At times I felt that you were all I had You were my friend and believed in me Chorus You went the extra mile to prove your love was true You held out your hands as they drove the nails in you When you could have walked away and turned your back to all my sins For me you gave your life, you chose to be my friend Verse II Often like a child so full of fear, you stood by my side and held me near You were my friend, you believed in me When my faith grew weak and strength seemed gone You took me by the hand and led me on You were my friend, you believed in me #keeppressingkeeppraising
