I was always looking for security and permanence growing up in a chaotic home in the chaotic 1960s. I found both in Jesus, my forever friend.
Verse 1
Out of the house and over the hill
Someplace where I can’t be found
No one to tell me it’s time to come home
Hold my tail to the ground

When I was a kid these were my thoughts
These were my dreams in school
To be in a place where I could be safe
In a place where I made the rules

Pre-chorus
Maybe I was searching
Not for someplace new
Maybe I was yearning
For fellowship with You

Chorus 1
You, my forever friend 
You, where broken hearts can mend
You, on whom I can depend
You, my forever friend
My forever friend

Verse 2
Didn’t really wanna be involved 
With the uncertainty of school
Friends were few and far between
And some friends could be cruel

All I wanted was a person who
Would love me and never leave
And You showed up just in time
And revealed Yourself to me

Pre-chorus
Maybe I was searching
Not for someone new
Maybe I was yearning
For fellowship with You

Chorus 2
You, my forever friend 
You, where broken hearts can mend
You, on whom I can depend
You, my forever friend
My forever friend

Chorus 3
You, my forever friend 
You, where broken hearts can mend
You, on whom I can depend
You, my forever friend

Outro
My forever friend
My forever friend
My forever friend
