Friends of God

April 29,2024

While we were still God’s enemy, we could not call Him friend.
He sent His Son to die for us, relationships to mend.
He carried sin into the grave so we could be made right.
He conquered death. His love prevailed. We’re precious in His sight.

We’re saved from condemnation; our friendship is restored.
He made a way, we can be friends, thanks to our precious Lord.
I know the Lord, His fellowship and friendship I proclaim.
Each day I now can walk with Him and call the Lord by name.

I value our relationship, although I sometimes stray.
He’s always there, a friend indeed, it’s up to me to pray.
He’ll hear my prayer, when I’ve done wrong, confession is my role.
Our fellowship will be restored, our friendship will be whole.

Give thanks to Jesus Christ our Lord, we now are friends with God.
One day we’ll see Him face to face and walk where angels trod.
