Cântăre Friendship with Jesus

1. A friend of Jesus! Oh, what bliss

That one so weak as I

Should ever have a Friend like this

To lead me to the sky!



R: Friendship with Jesus!

Fellowship divine!

Oh, what blessed, sweet communion!

Jesus is a Friend of mine.



2. A Friend when other friendships cease,

A Friend when others fail,

A Friend who gives me joy and peace,

A Friend when foes assail!



3. A Friend when sickness lays me low,

A Friend when death draws near,

A Friend as through the vale I go,

A Friend to help and cheer!



4. A Friend when life’s short race is o’er

A Friend when earth is past,

A Friend to meet on Heaven’s shore,

A Friend when home at last!
