Being of Acquaintance
A friend asked me for a favor
Since I was who I was
And with whom I knew
Being of acquaintance
With the Lord our God
My friend asked me to pray
For they were lost and didn't know
How to be found and led home
Though I kept my promise
I also told him that he could pray too
So we prayed together and he thanked me
He too was now grateful for
Being of acquaintance
With the Lord our God
