15121. I Have No Friend Like Jesus

1 I have no friend like Jesus
To stand up by my side;
He is my friend and brother,
My Savior and my guide.

Refrain:
No friend, no friend,
I have no friend like Jesus;
No friend, no friend,
No other friend like Jesus.

2 I need no friend but Jesus,
I lean upon His arm;
He keeps me safe from danger,
And shields me from all harm. [Refrain]

3 When earthly friends forsake me,
And leave me lone and sad,
Then Jesus comes to cheer me,
His presence makes me glad. [Refrain]

4 I’ll trust no one but Jesus
To guide me all the way;
He’ll keep me in the sunshine
That leads to endless day. [Refrain]
