A song for today: Hallelujah, what a Savior! Hallelujah, what a Friend!

 

1 Jesus! what a Friend for sinners!

Jesus! Lover of my soul;

Friends may fail me, foes assail me,

He, my Savior, makes me whole.

Refrain:

Hallelujah! what a Savior!

Hallelujah! what a Friend!

Saving, helping, keeping, loving,

He is with me to the end.

2 Jesus! what a Strength for weakness!

Let me hide myself in Him;

Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing,

He, my Strength, my vict'ry wins. [Refrain]

3 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. [Refrain]

4 Jesus! I do now receive Him,

More than all in Him I find,

He has granted me forgiveness,

I am His, and He is mine. [Refrain]
