Lyrics
Jesus! what a Friend for sinners! Jesus! Lover of my soul; Friends may fail me, foes assail me, He, my Savior, makes me whole. Chorus Hallelujah! what a Savior! Hallelujah! what a Friend! Saving, helping, keeping, loving, He is with me to the end. Jesus! what a strength in weakness! Let me hide myself in Him; Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing, He, my strength, my vic'try wins. Chorus Jesus! what a help in sorrow! While the billows o'er me roll, Even when my heart is breaking, He, my comfort, helps my soul. Chorus Jesus! what a guide and keeper! While the tempest still is high, Storms about me, night o'ertakes me, He, my pilot, hears my cry. Chorus Jesus! I do now receive Him, More than all in Him I find, He hath granted me forgiveness, I am His and He is mine! Chorus
