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 "Lilly 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 need on Him to roll :
    He's the "Lilly of the Valley," the "Bright and Morning Star "
    He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul !

       In sorrow He's my comfort, trouble He's my stay;
       He tells me every need on Him to roll :
       He's the " Lilly of the Valley, " the 
       Bright and Morning Star " ;
       He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul !

2. He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrow borne
    In temptation He's my strong and mighty tower;
    I've all for Him forsaken, I've my all idols torn 
    From my heart - and now He keeps me by his power.
    Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempt me sore,
    Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.
    He's the "Lilly of the Valley," the 
    "Bright 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.
