Unexpected Friends

When the dark closes in so hard

I can hardly see

And the walls of my fortress of faith

Crumble in on me

When it seems like the end

Not a measure of strength to spend

I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me

When it seems like the end

Not a measure of strength to spend

I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me

With some unexpected friends

Never asking where I've been

Just a hand of mercy and words of love

Call me back again

Oh, it feels like home

With unexpected friends

A soothing balm for the wounds

I suffer along the way

A fervent prayer giving courage

And hope for another day

Through the help of my friends

Ones I may never see again

Seem like angels that were sent

By heaven for me

With some unexpected friends

Never asking where I've been

Just a hand of mercy and words of love

Call me back again

Oh, it feels like home

With unexpected friends

Unexpected friends

Never asking where I've been

Just a hand of mercy and words of love

Call me back again

Oh, it feels like home

With unexpected friends
