Backing ( My friend my friend my) My friend Backing( My friend) Is the king of all kings And yet my friend walks beside me My friend Backing( My friend) Rules the earth and the sun And yet my friend stops to guide me My friend takes my hand Just when all appears in vain And makes it plain Through joy or pain He'll remain My friend My friend tells me life is a road
And though it ends At the bending My friend Tells then there's a road beyond this road That is unending Some day when I walk up the happy road that lies Around the bend Who will there be To welcome me My friend Musical interlude and backing Some day when I walk up the happy road that lies Around the bend Who will there be To welcome me My friend
