[00:00.770]I've seen a lot of things in my life
[00:13.296]A lot of ups and downs
[00:17.040]Made a lot of mistakes
[00:21.016]No matter what, you've always been by my side
[00:25.967]You've always been my best friend
[00:32.704]You're the love of my life
[00:42.735]You're everything to me
[00:47.792]You never left my side
[00:51.431]I love you so much
[00:55.279]You're my best friend
[00:58.865]Since the beginning of time
[01:01.671]All you did was bless men
[01:03.447]Too young to understand but now you my best friend
[01:06.159]How could they doubt you, never think about you
[01:08.695]Don't they know nothing's possible without you
[01:11.679]Faith without fear that's how they raised me
[01:14.679]Words of man kill but never phase me
[01:17.263]Grateful for wisdom that you gave me
[01:19.615]But still I'm like, dear God I wonder, could you save me?
[01:22.935]Too much sinning, gotta be more than plush living
[01:26.119]Gotta be more than grabbing nines to buck tin in
[01:28.983]Gotta be more than just to lust women
[01:31.071]Gotta be more than platinum Rolexes, 600's and crushed linen
[01:34.607]Praise your name, I know some of them hate their due
[01:37.416]Judgment day, don't they know they can't escape your crew
[01:40.271]I'm just trying to live right and pray you take me through
[01:43.144]And with this song I dedicate to you, my Lord
[01:45.823]Lord, you mean the world to me
[01:48.271]Before I was born you chose me
[01:51.015]You always hear me when I'm calling
[01:53.951]Even catch me when I'm falling
[01:56.729]You're the closest one to me
[01:59.382]I surrender all to thee
[02:02.223]I want the whole wide world to see
[02:04.975]That we've always been and we'll always be
[02:07.903]Best friends
[02:08.647]Sometimes I reminisce and wonder how I made it this far
[02:11.255]Because of you, I'm me, so you the real star
[02:14.111]Your hindsight, the time's right to get my mind tight
[02:17.151]Then give it to you and let it shine bright
[02:19.719]My best friend, only know how to teach the truth
[02:22.631]Plant the seeds of life and let them eat the fruit
[02:25.590]Can't you see that He spread love for you
[02:28.030]Shed blood for you, cry for and die for you
[02:31.054]Willies with mac millies know how you get down
[02:33.734]We know the drama you bring whenever you hit town
[02:36.622]Just remember when you pray, God is love
[02:39.335]Gracious, merciful, forgive even the hardest thugs
[02:42.422]Life as we know it, it all begins with Him
[02:45.214]Life as we know it, it all ends with Him
[02:48.022]If I was you I would never try to pretend with Him
[02:50.584]He might spaz and blow it, I'm best friends with him
[02:53.489]Lord, you mean the world to me
[02:55.558]Before I was born you chose me
[02:59.094]You always hear me when I'm calling
[03:01.982]Even catch me when I'm falling
[03:04.830]You're the closest one to me
[03:07.193]I surrender all to thee
[03:09.902]I want the whole wide world to see
[03:12.832]That we've always been and we'll always be
[03:15.647]Best friends
[03:16.616]Been two and a half years since my man Big passed
[03:19.094]Been two and a half years since my world crashed
[03:21.288]I needed help, God gave me the power
[03:24.494]Gave me the strength to go face to face with my darkest hour
[03:27.510]Looked me in the eyes and ask, "What you doing unhappy?"
[03:30.398]"Don't you know why I'm here?" and started shooting at me
[03:33.112]Back to the wall, is my faith gonna play out
[03:35.742]Never wavered once, gave me no way out
[03:38.541]Your time to die, don't even stress the date
[03:41.191]You're coming with me, your soul I'm next to take
[03:44.390]I told him, "I'm too much blessed with faith"
[03:46.837]"And living for Christ" and then he said, "Manifest the great"
[03:50.213]All of a sudden, what I'm remembering
[03:52.289]Ground started to shake, everything trembling
[03:55.493]The power of the truth was shooting through my Timberlands
[03:58.117]Here was my Lord Jesus Christ, my best friend again, come on
[04:01.504]Lord, you mean the world to me
[04:03.757]Before I was born you chose me
[04:06.469]You always hear me when I'm calling
[04:09.733]Even catch me when I'm falling
[04:12.557]You're the closest one to me
[04:15.397]I surrender all to thee
[04:17.781]I want the whole wide world to see
[04:20.405]That we've always been and we'll always be
[04:23.573]Best friends
[04:24.478]Lord, you mean the world to me
[04:26.157]Before I was born you chose me
[04:28.997]You always hear me when I'm calling
[04:32.157]Even catch me when I'm falling
[04:34.981]You're the closest one to me
[04:37.821]I surrender all to thee
[04:40.493]I want the whole wide world to see
[04:43.277]That we've always been and we'll always be
[04:45.845]Best friends
[04:46.597]Lord, you mean the world to me
[04:48.895]Before I was born you chose me
[04:51.997]You always hear me when I'm calling
[04:54.725]Even catch me when I'm falling
[04:57.533]You're the closest one to me
[04:59.973]I surrender all to thee
[05:03.022]I want the whole wide world to see
[05:05.829]That we've always been and we'll always be
[05:08.493]Best friends
[05:09.301]I love you Jesus
[05:12.012]Thank you, forgive me for my trespasses
[05:18.060]As I forgive those who trespass against me
[05:22.052]Thank you
