Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Don't go and talk about my father (talk about my father)
God is my friend, (Jesus is my friend) he is my friend
He made this world for us to live in (he made this world)
And gave us everything (Lord gave us everything)
And all he asks of us (peace) is we give each other love, oh yeah
Don't go and talk about my father (don't talk about na-na-na)
'Cause God is my friend, (Jesus is my friend) he is my friend
He loves us whether or not we know it (just loves us, oh yeah)
And he'll forgive all our sins, (He'll forgive our sins) oh yeah
And all he asks of us, oh yeah, is we give each other love, oh yeah
Love your mother, she bore you
Love your father, he works for you
Love your sister, she's good to you
Love your brother, love your brother
Don't go and talk about my father, He's good to us
God is my friend, (Jesus is my friend) he is my friend
And when we call on him for mercy, mercy Father
He'll be merciful, my friend, oh, yes He will
All he asks of us, I know
