FRIENDS MY COME AND FRIENDS MY GO
BUT FRIENDS OF THE HEART DO NOT DEPART
FOR EACH ONE IS WORTH REMEMBERING
THERE IS A FRIEND THAT IS ALWAYS TRUE
SHOULD THIS FRIENDSHIP WANE
THERE IS BUT ONE TO BLAME
AND THAT ONE IS ME
JESUS IS THE FRIEND IF WHOM I SPEAK
MY FRIENDSHIP HE CONTINUES TO SEAK
NO GRUDGE HE DOTH HOLD
NO GREATER STORY IS TOLD
THAN THE LOVE OF THIS FRIEND
WHO GAVE US LIVE WITHOUT END
I HAVE A NEW SONG TO SING
GREAT JOY IT DOES BRING
MY DAYS ARE SO MUCH BRIGHTER
AND MY BURDENS SO MUCH LIGHTER
THERE IS A REASON WHY
I EXPERINCE SUCH A HIGH
I'VE MET A VERY SPECIAL FRIEND
WITH A LOVE I CAN NOT COMPREHEND
THAT HE WOULD DIE FOR ME
UP THERE ON CALVARY'S TREE
TO PAY THE PRICE FOR MY SINS
THE VICTORY OVER THE GRAVE HE DID WIN
PURPLE IS THE COLOR OF ROYALTY WE ARE TOLD
CRIMSON IS THE COLOR OF ROYALTY MY HEART DOES HOLD
FOR THAT IS THE COLOR OF BLOOD MY SAVIOR SHED
YES HIS REDEEMING BLOOD IS CRIMSON RED
NOW HE IS THE KING OF KINGS; HE IS ROYALTY
JESUS IS MY HOPE AND REALITY

LIKE LOOKING THROUGH A STAINED GLASS WINDOW
AS WE TRAVEL THIS LAND
SO MUCH WE DO NOT COMPPREND
SO MUCH WE DO NOT UNDERSTAND
WE WILL SEE IT ALL SO CLEAR
IN THE BY AND BY
WHEN WE REACH OUR HOME
UP THERE ON HIGH
WE ALL HAVE BURDENS TO BARE
BUT WE KNOW GOD DOES CARE
HE GIVES STRENGTH TO CARRY ON
AND PUTS WITHIN OUR HEART A SONG
THERE IS A TIME WHEN THIS SHALL PASS AWAY
WHEN WE AWAKE TO A NEW DAY
SO JUST KNOW EACH TRIAL
WILL MAKE US STRONG
GOD WILL MAKE THINGS RIGHT
THAT SEEMS TO BE WRONG
DO NOT BE DICOURAGED
DO NOT BE BLUE
LET THE LIGHT OF GOD
ALWAYS SHINE THROUGH YOU
