Jesus! What a Friend for Sinners

Jesus! what a friend for sin­ners!

Jesus! Lov­er of my soul;

Friends may fail me

foes as­sail me

He

my Sav­ior

makes me whole.

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 vic­to­ry wins.

Jesus! what a help in sor­row!

While the bil­lows over me roll

Even when my heart is break­ing

He

my com­fort

helps my soul.

Jesus! what a guide and keep­er!

While the tem­pest still is high

Storms about me

night ov­er­takes me

He

my pi­lot

hears my cry.

Jesus! I do now re­ceive Him

[or Je­sus! I do now ad­ore Him]

More than all in Him I find.

He hath grant­ed me for­give­ness

I am His

and He is mine.
