My Friends Let Me Down

Written by: Michael Lee and Gary White

Verse 1

To my amazement, my friends gathered round me with my frail condition in mind
They bore me up, with an aire of excitement and very soon we had arrived
But there were so many, we could not get near Him so much as to enter the door
So without hesitation my friends let me down, in a manner not seen before

Chorus

Oh my friends let me down to Jesus
Though I was crippled and lame
My broken body, and my broken heart, will never be the same
Now there is joy overflowing, in my heart and my family
Since they let me down to Jesus, just look what's happened to me

Verse 2

I thought I had gone, as far as I could
I wanted to just stay in bed
Perhaps my friends, would come to my rescue so I went to church instead
The choir was singing, the preacher was preaching, something was happening to me
Then my friends, to my surprise, led me to Calvary

Chorus

Oh my friends let me down to Jesus
Though I was crippled and lame
My broken body, and my broken heart, will never be the same
Now there is joy overflowing, in my heart and my family
Since they let me down to Jesus, just look what's happened to me

Tag

Since they let me down to Jesus, just look what's happened to me
Look what's happened to me
