And when earth's labors cease, Bid us depart in peace, Dear Lord, to Thee, Dear Lord, to Thee. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LOVE'S OFFERING

Lyrics: 1 I’ve found a Friend, oh, such a Friend! He loved me ere I knew Him; He drew me with the cords of love, And thus He bound me to Him. And round my heart still closely twine Those ties which naught can sever, For I am His, and He is mine, Forever and forever. 2 I’ve found a Friend, oh, such a Friend! He bled, He died to save me; And not alone the gift of life, But His own Self He gave me. Naught that I have mine own I call, I’ll hold it for the Giver; My heart, my strength, my life, my all Are His, and His forever. 3 I’ve found a Friend, oh, such a Friend! All power to Him is given, To guard me on my onward course, And bring me safe to heaven. Th'eternal glories gleam afar, To nerve my faint endeavor; So now to watch, to work, to war; And then to rest forever. 4 I’ve found a Friend, oh, such a Friend! So kind, and true, and tender, So wise a Counsellor and Guide, So mighty a Defender! From Him who loves me now so well What power my soul shall sever? Shall life or death, or earth or hell? No; I am His forever. Languages: English Tune Title: [I've found a Friend, oh, such a Friend!]

Thy ever smiling ace to see, And serve the cause of such a Friend. 3 I would not breathe for worldly joy, Or to increase my worldly good; Nor future days nor powers employ To spread a sounding name abroad. 4 ’Tis to my Saviour I would live, To Him who for my ransom died; Nor could untainted Eden give Such bliss as blossoms at His side. 5 His work my hoary age shall bless, When youthful vigour is no more; And my last hour of life confess His love hath animating power.
