I’VE FOUND A FRIEND IN JESUS
1. I’ve found a friend in Jesus,
He’s everything to me;
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to
my soul!
The ALily of the Valley@, in Him
alone I see
All I need to cleanse and make me
fully whole;
In sorrow He’s my comfort, in
trouble He’s my stay;
He tells me every care on Him to
roll:
He’s the ALily of the Valley@, the
ABright and Morning Star@,
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to
my soul!
2. He all my grief has taken, and all
my sorrows borne;
In temptation He’s my strong and
mighty tower;
I’ve all for Him forsaken, I’ve all
my idols torn
From my heart and now He keeps
me by His pow’r.
Though all the world forsake me,
and Satan tempt me sore,
Through Jesus I shall safely reach
the goal.
He’s the ALily of the Valley@, the
ABright and Morning Star@;
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to
my soul!
3. He’ll never never leave me nor yet
forsake me here,
While I live by faith, and do His
blessed will;
A wall of fire about me, I’ve
nothing now to fear:
With His manna He my hungry
soul shall fill.
When crowned at last in glory,
I’ll see His blessed face,
Where rivers of delight shall ever
roll.
He’s the ALily of the Valley, the
ABright and Morning Star;
He’s the fairest of ten thousand to
my soul!
