Amigo Ideal

Ideal Friend
Walking in the world I was looking for
An ideal friend
Who would be with me in the good times
And in the bad times share a loaf of bread
But everything seemed useless
That friend I never found
And I kept on, and kept on looking
From day to dusk
Where is, where is?
That friend I want to find
Who helps me calm these sorrows
And finds a little peace
And I kept on, and kept on looking
Through the streets of the big city
And one day I heard them singing
Praises of love and peace
I hurriedly looked for the church
And arriving I could see
The pastor ecstatically saying
Jesus Christ is your ideal friend
With tears covering my eyes
I walked and knelt at the altar
And asked the pastor with my soul
Where is that special friend
He laid his hands on me
And said with certainty
From now on you have a friend
In whom you can always trust
I found, I found
That friend I longed for so much
And happily I will continue to proclaim
That Jesus is my ideal friend
