Lord, I lift my friend to You
I've done all that I know to do
I lift my friend to You
Complicated circumstances
Have clouded his view
Lord, I lift my friend up to You
I fear that I won't have the words
That he needs to hear
I pray for Your wisdom, oh God
And a heart that's sincere
Lord, I lift my friend up to You
Lord, I lift my friend to You
My best friend in the world I know
He means much more to You
I want so much to help him
But this is something he has to do
And Lord, I lift my friend up to You
‘Cause there's a way that seems so right to him
But You know where that leads
He's becoming a puppet of the world
Too blind to see the strings
Lord, I lift my friend up to You
My friend up to You
Lord, I lift my friend to You
I've done all that I know to do
I lift my friend to You
