to share a testimony bright,
to speak with love and feel
encircled with Christ's light!
The Junior and Senior Apostle Decades of Friendship
It's more than seeing the empty chair...
[[Verse 1]
Side by side in quiet chapels
Scriptures open on our knees
We stumbled through our first few lessons
Then watched Light and truth set people free
We laughed in empty church hall kitchens
Planning talks, the last to leave
You’d nod at me
I’d nod right back
Both of us leaning on Christ
[Chorus]
This friendship bound with the gospel
A cord that time can’t tear apart
We carry the weight on our shoulders
And you know just how to reach my heart
To testify
To shine so bright
To feel our Savior in the room tonight
We stand together
Word in hand
Encircled in Christ’s light
[Verse 2]
We poured our fears into our journals
Then shared the pages
Trembling
You saw the cracks inside my armor
Spoke grace into my questioning
We watched the weary find their footing
Heard second chances in their prayers
You’d squeeze my shoulder when I faltered
Reminding me Jesus was there
[Chorus]
This friendship bound with the gospel
A cord that time can’t tear apart
We carry the weight on our shoulders
And you know just how to reach my heart
To testify
To shine so bright
To feel our Savior in the room tonight
We stand together
Word in hand
Encircled in Christ’s light
[Bridge]
If one day heaven calls you sooner
If one day I must stay behind
Your voice will live inside my memory
Your faith will echo in my mind
Because this love is more than breathing
It’s a promise sealed above
We’ll meet again where fears are finished
Still teaching
Still sharing His love
[Chorus]
This friendship bound with the gospel
A cord that time can’t tear apart
We carry the weight on our shoulders
And you know just how to reach my heart
To testify
To shine so bright
To feel our Savior in the room tonight
We stand together
Word in hand
Encircled in Christ’s light
