Be My Companion

lyricist: A. R. T.
Composer: A. R. T.

Two are better than one;

If I fall

then you can pick me up.

Two are better than one

To resist the enemy.

Three are better than two;

A three-fold cord’s not quickly broken.

(Insert name)

I need you;

Be my companion.

God has placed me with you here

My companions who are so dear.

Blend us

knit us

and build us up today.

Day by day you encourage me;

A foretaste of New Jerusalem I see.

I need you

my companion.

We are running a race

Pressing on each day toward the goal.

We are running a race;

Christ the prize we hold in view.

Fleeing youthful lusts

But faith

love

peace

and righteousness pursue;

(Insert name)

I need you.

Be my companion.

I’m an ear that can’t see;

There are many things that I can’t do.

You’re an eye that can’t hear;

See

I have my function too.

We’re an eye and an ear

So we need arms and legs and pinky toes.

(Insert name)

we need them;

We’re one living Body.
