Sandi Patty - Unexpected Friends Lyrics

When the dark closes in so hard
I can hardly see
And the walls of my fortress of faith
Crumble in on me
When it seems like the end
Not a measure of strength to spend
I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me

When it seems like the end
Not a measure of strength to spend
I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me

With some unexpected friends
Never asking where I've been
Just a hand of mercy and words of love
Call me back again
Oh, it feels like home
With unexpected friends

A soothing balm for the wounds I suffer along the way
A fervent prayer giving courage and hope for another day
Through the help of my friends
Ones I may never see again
Seem like angels that were sent by heaven for me

With some unexpected friends
Never asking where I've been
Just a hand of mercy and words of love
Call me back again
Oh, it feels like home
With unexpected friends
