Jesus...Best Friend,
may your soul give life to me,
may your flesh be food for me,
may your warm my hardened heart.
Jesus...Best Friend,
may your tears now wash me clean,
may your passion keep me strong,
may you listen to my plea.
Jesus...Best Friend,
may your wound take in my hurts,
may your gaze be fixed on me,
may I not betray your love.
Jesus...Best Friend,
may you call me at death's door,
may you hold me close to you,
may you place me with God's saints,
may I ever sing your praise. Amen.
