verse 1
you don't have to worry and don't you be afraid
joy comes in the morning, troubles they don't last always
for there's a friend in Jesus, who will wipe your tears away
and if your heart is broken, just lift your hands and say

chorus 1
"i know that i can make it, i know that i can stand
no matter what may come my way
my life is in your hands"

(back to verse 1)
(chorus 2)
(2nd part of the chorus)
"with Jesus i can take it, with him i know i can stand
no matter what may come my way
my life is in your hands

verse 2
so when the tests and trials, may seem to get you down
and all your friends and loved ones are nowhere to be found
remember there's friend in Jesus, who will wipe your tears away
and if your heart is broken, just lift your hands and say

(chorus 1 and 2)
