When the day is almost gone and the night is almost here
I don't mind my family and those who helped me along the way
But I need Jesus most of all to be my friend
Through the cares of this mean and cruel world
When I needed him he was always on time
Like a soldier in the army he never left me behind
That's why I'm glad to say I am his and he is mine
Oh when I'm faced with heartache and suffering
And to the table I have nothing to bring
In the midnight hour he'll rock me
Rock my weary soul to sleep and in my ear redemption song he'll sing
If you're listening to this song and you don't know him
And your searching for someone through thick and thin
In my expert opinion as someone who' s had so-called friends
I recommend Jesus he will be there until the end
