25. Jesus Ever Is the Same True Friend

1 Though the seasons come and go,
Summer’s sun and winter’s snow,
Tho’ the passing years to earth their changes lend;
There is One whose love so free
Evermore will changeless be!
Jesus ever is the same true friend!

Refrain:
Jesus is our friend,
Ever the same true friend!
He’s the one on whom we may depend;
Tho’ afar our steps would roam,
He would seek to bring us home,
Jesus ever is the same true friend!

2 Time’s swift current onward glides,
There is nothing which abides,
To the fleeting years all things must surely bend;
Friends may false or faithless prove,
But there’s One whose name is Love!
Jesus ever is the same true friend! [Refrain]

3 Then, while swift years haste away,
Let us strive from day to day
To be those on whom the Master may depend,
For tho’ naught may long endure,
Of this truth our hearts are sure,
Jesus ever is the same true friend! [Refrain]
