Closer Than a Brother

There's a Friend who is closer than a brother,

He is with me each moment, each day.

Earthly friends often grieve one another,

But there's One I can trust and obey.

He is closer than a brother,

And He tells me to Him I belong.

When forsaken by all other,

The sound of His voice makes me strong.

There was once when I thought I was happy,

With the love of a friend that I knew.

But I found as I searched this world over,

There is only one Friend that is true.

He is closer than a brother,

And He tells me to Him I belong.

When forsaken by all other,

The sound of His voice makes me strong.

If your heart now is breaking within you,

And you've come to the end of the road.

If you tell Him that you really need Him.

I am sure He will carry your load.

He is closer than a brother,

And He tells me to Him I belong.

When forsaken by all other,

The sound of His voice makes me strong.
