Verse
You had a plan
From the beginning
You always had me
On your mind
When it feels like
My life's crashing down
You came and you
Reached out your arms
You've been a friend
From the beginning
Pre Chorus
What greater love than someone
To lay His life down for me
Through Your blood
My life has been set free
You got up with all power
In your hands
Defeat wasn't in your plan
You take the final stand
Chorus
What a friend we have
What a friend we have
What a covenant
Just like Abraham
What a friend we have
Verse
It was Your plan
From the beginning
Of all creation
It was me who You'd find
When I tried to hide from You love
You left ninety-nine for the one
You've been a friend
From the beginning
Pre Chorus
What greater love than someone
To lay His life down for me
Through Your blood
My life has been set free
You got up with all power
In your hands
Defeat wasn't in your plan
You take the final stand
