 D2                       D
Lord I lift my friend to You.
      D/F#
I've done all that I know to do.
    G                 D
I lift my friend, to You.
D2              D/F#
Complicated circumstances
        G               D/F#
have clouded his view.
 Em               A          D
Lord I lift my friend up to You.


   G           D/F#           A
I fear that I won't have the words
         Bm        A
that he needs to hear.
   G              D          A
I pray for Your wisdom , oh God.
       A/Bb           Bm     A
And a heart that's sincere.
     Em               A
And Lord I lift my friend up
    G
to You.

D2                        D
Lord I lift my friend to You.
    D/F#
My best friend in the
           G   
world, I know he means much
         D
more to You.
   D2                           D/F#
I want so much to help him, but
                  G             D/F#
this is something he has to do.
 Em              A           D
Lord I lift my friend up to You.


           G              D           A
There's a way that seems so right to him.
         Bm            A
But You know where that leads.
G                 D/F#          A
He's becoming a puppet of the world.
     A/Bb               Bm     A
Too blind to see the strings.
     Em               A          G
And Lord I lift my friend up to You.
