Jesus Is a Friend of Mine

I’ve a blest com­pan­ion ev­er at my side;

He’s my Lord and Sav­ior

and He’s my guide;

I am trust­ing dai­ly in His love di­vine;

He’s a friend of mine.

Jesus is a friend of mine

Friend of mine

a friend of mine;

Sweeter ev­er sweet­er

is His love di­vine;

Jesus is a friend of mine.

When I meet temp­ta­tions Je­sus bears me through

Gives me bless­èd vic­t’ry and keeps me true;

Heaven’s gold­en sun­light round my path doth shine;

He’s a friend of mine.

What a friend is Je­sus in this world of woe!

Oh

how sweet to trust Him

His love to know—

Blessèd Lord and Sav­ior

I’m so glad I’m Thine;

He’s a friend of mine.
