Written to my Better than Best Friend Dear God Lyrics Dear God, can you tell me what I need to get by? God, tell me what to do with my life God, I need my heart to be held in your hands Dear God, rescue me from all the ways my tongue moves Simplify my right and wrong Cover up the bruise of sin, oh again Dear God, why can't I be happy with myself? God, things don't go right, I don't look good But you've heard it all before Slow me down, send me to the roses Pull me out of this routine and all I've made of it Ring the bells, light the candles I'll climb a mountain by your side Oh and I'll cry, dear God, take this pain away Let me feel okay today I fall, but you're right by my side to hold on to I have my friends, but there are times that's not enough You'll be my best friend til I die, and better than best then And better than best then, you'll be my better than best friend I see you in my mind and I don't know how often I try to say I love you I see you in my mind and I don't know how often I try to say I need you.
