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
And 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
And Lord I lift my friend up to You
Lord, I lift my friend to You, though he's 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
And Lord, I lift 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
