me Well He came just in time And now I’m doing fine And He never
lied to me He never, He never, He never, no...
Chorus: He never lied to me (He never, no, He never lied to
me) Oh, my Jesus (He never, no, He never lied to me) He never lied

(He never, no, He never lied to me) Just put your trust in me (He
never, no, He never lied to me) I’ll see you through all eternity (He
never, no, He never lied to me) One day my faith grew weak (He, He, He
never lied to me) I stood on a troubled sea (He never, no, He never
lied to me) I began to drown (He never, no, He never lied to me) But
Jesus lifted me (He never, no, He never lied to me) He said He’d be my
friend Until the very end And He never lied to me
Promises I’ve made I haven’t kept Some things I’ve said I sure
regret But this thing I know I was lost and now I’m found He
brought me to some very solid ground If your faith is weak And
you’re on a troubled sea I won’t let you drown There’s hope for you
and me I’ll throw you a life-line And we’ll be doing fine And He
never lied to me He never, He never, He never, no...
