[Verse 1]
I've never heard You say
What have you done for me lately?
What have you done to earn my grace?
And I've never heard You speak
Anything but Your love for me
Anything but identity
[Chorus]
What a friend I've found in You, Jesus
What a friend I've found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
[Verse 2]
You've only made me feel
That I was welcome in Your house
That I was honored and adored
You've seen me at my worst
But You've never held it against me
Running to me when I return
[Chorus]
Oh, what a friend
Oh, what a friend I've found in You, Jesus
What a friend I've found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
Oh, what a friend, what a friend
What a friend I've found in You, Jesus
What a friend I've found in You, oh-oh
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
[Bridge]
Oh, You've been my Savior, You've been my shield
You've been my defender on the battlefield
Oh, You've been my Father, You've been my rock
You've been my portion, and You're more than enough
Oh, You've been my shelter, You've been my strength
You've been my provider again and again
Oh, You've been my redeemer and I can't comprehend
How the God of creation would call me His friend
[Chorus]
Oh, what a friend I've found in You, Jesus
What a friend I've found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on (You)
[Bridge]
Oh, You've been, oh, You've been my
Oh, You've been my Savior, You've been my shield
And You've been my defender on the battlefield
Oh, You've been my Father, You've been my rock
And You've been my portion, oh, You're more than enough
Oh, You've been my shelter, oh, You've been my strength
You've been my provider again and again
Oh, You've been my redeemer and I can't comprehend
How the God of creation would call me His friend
[Chorus]
Oh, what a friend I've found in You, Jesus
What a friend I've found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on (You)
What a friend
What a friend I've found in You, Jesus
What a friend I've found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
Let's sing it out one more time, what a friend
What a friend I've found in You, Jesus
What a friend I've found in You
When no one else could keep their promise
I can always count on You
