The Friend of God

Adam talked to God, Moses knew him face to face
Enoch walked with God, in whose eyes Noah found grace
David had a heart for God, his name he would defend
Abraham believed God and he was called his friend

Chorus:
I want to be the friend of God
I want to hear him speaking just to me
One who sticks closer than a brother could be
O, I want to be the friend of God

“Speak, Lord,” said Samuel, “I’ll serve you with my heart”
Mary sat at Jesus’ feet, for she chose that good part
Ruth said, “I will follow your great God of Israel”
Paul said, “That I may know him,” who knows me so well
