I've Found a Friend, O Such a Friend!

Author: James G. Small Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #517 (1990) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Year Written: 1866 Topics: Abiding in Christ Lyrics: 1 I've found a Friend, O 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, O 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'll 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, O such a Friend! All pow'r to him is given, to guard me on my onward course, and bring me safe to heaven: eternal glory gleams 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, O such a Friend! So kind and true and tender, so wise a Counselor and guide, so mighty a defender! From him who loves me now so well what pow'r my soul can sever? Shall life or death, shall earth or hell? No! I am his forever. Scripture: John 15:13 Languages: English Tune Title: CONSTANCE

Clowney Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #703 (1990) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Year Written: 1890 Topics: Abiding in Christ Lyrics: 1 Loved with everlasting love, drawn by grace that love to know, Spirit went from Christ above, thou dost witness it is so. O this full and precious peace from his presence all divine; in a love that cannot cease, I am his and he is mine; in a love that cannot cease, I am his and he is mine. 2 Heav'n above is deeper blue, earth around is sweeter green, that which glows in every hue Christ-less eyes have never seen. Birds in song his glories show, flow'rs with richer beauties shine since I know, as now I know, I am his and he is mine; since I know, as now I know, I am his and he is mine. 3 Taste the goodness of the Lord: welcomed home to his embrace, all his love as blood out-poured seals the pardon of his grace. Can I doubt his love for me, when I trace that love's design? By the cross of Calvary I am his and he is mine. By the cross of Calvary I am his and he is mine. 4 His forever, only his - who the Lord and me shall part? Ah, with what a rest of bliss Christ can fill the loving heart. Heav'n and earth may fade and flee, first-born light in gloom decline, but while God and I shall be, I am his and he is mine; but while God and I shall be, I am his and he is mine.
