When every word has fallen short I have a savior who reads my heart He’s not the kind to walk away He’s not impatient he always stays He knows my deepest desires He knows me better than I do Oh what a friend I have in Jesus Oh what a friend I’ve found in him Oh what a privilege to know he’s Always listening When I am found in the shadow place When others can’t know the things I face There he will tarry there he will wait His presence with me is my daybreak He knows my deepest desires He knows me better than I do Oh what a friend I have in Jesus Oh what a friend I’ve found in him Oh what a privilege to know he’s Always listening Jesus Jesus Jesus Jesus Oh what a friend I have in Jesus Oh what a friend I’ve found in him Oh what a privilege to know he’s Always listening
