EMPTY WORDS


So many times they are spoken
Honeyed words to the ear
We’ll be a friend we wont forsake
If others go we will be near
We are not like others
Who are not true
No matter what
We will stand by you
I look around when they are needed
Only to find no one will stand
Oh the empty words that I heeded
They are not here to hold my hand

Chorus

Empty words you cannot trust
They fly away like windswept dust
Jesus Saviour a friend indeed
His words are matched by His deed
He shows by action that they are true
No empty words He speaks to you

Jesus promised His words would stand
 All else would pass away
These words of His I understand
Of love and grace still true today
A friend I’ll be to you
Here in your need
For I love you
My words you can heed
When all will leave you and go away
Their empty words lost in the air
I wont forsake and I will stay
I am the One who will really care

Chorus

Empty words you cannot trust
They fly away like windswept dust
Jesus Saviour a friend indeed
His words are matched by His deed
He shows by action that they are true
No empty words He speaks to you
