My Dearest Friend - The Evans Family - Live

I have a dear friend in Jesus Christ
Dearer than life to me.
For He gave Himself to save my soul,
Death at Calvary.
As I travel through my life,
He has never failed.
Whenever I am in need
He's always there for me.
Chorus.
For though He's King of all creation
He's still my closest friend
And though He'll judge every nation
Each broken life He'll mend.
Oh it is such a relief when times are tough
That though all friends may flee
Jesus Christ has promised to be there for me
V2.
Some people say that the Christian life
Is an easy road?
But though He doesn't give a painless life
He will share our load.
Though temptations still abound
God gives us His grace.
No matter how big a problem;
Know He cares for you.
Chorus.
For though He's King of all creation
He's still my closest friend
And though He'll judge every nation
Each broken life He'll mend.
Oh it is such a relief when times are tough
That though all friends may flee
Jesus Christ has promised to be there for me.
Jesus will take care of you.

Loved this presentation, sung with such commitment, enthusiasm and harmony. Indeed he is our dearest friend. Great to see the captions so the deaf and hard of hearing have access to the lyrics most are able to hear. Also thanks for access to the printed lyrics. Thanks so much, Lyn Lockrey.

Beautifully encouraging… RICH BASS TIMBRE!!! The close harmonies sound like a double barbershop quartet when eyes are closed.
