I want to talk with Jesus all the day long
Telling my story and singing my song
I want to talk with Jesus all the day long
‘Cause He’s a friend of mine

I want to walk with Jesus all through the night
Showing Him all of my favorite sights
I want to walk with Jesus all through the night
‘Cause He’s a friend of mine

I asked Him in my heart many years ago
And I have come to know Him more and more
Every time I need Him, I call on His name
And He comes a running to my side

I want to sit with Jesus under the stars
Ask about creation right from the start
I want to sit with Jesus under the stars
‘Cause He’s a friend of mine

And even though He’s my friend I praise His name
I’ll worship Him forever, that will never change
I lift my voice to heaven and lift up my praise
To my very best friend – Jesus is His name

I asked Him in my heart many years ago
And I have come to know Him more and more
Every time I need Him, I call on His name
And He comes a running to my side
