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

Author: James G. Small Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 404 hymnals Topics: Christ Savior 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 Used With Tune: CONSTANCE

I Am Not Skilled to Understand

Author: Dora Greenwell Meter: 8.8.8.7 Appears in 86 hymnals Topics: Christ Savior Lyrics: 1 I am not skilled to understand what God has willed, what God has planned; I only know that at his right hand is One who is my Savior! 2 I take him at his word indeed: “Christ died for sinners,” this I read; for in my heart I find a need of him to be my Savior! 3 That he should leave his place on high and come for sinful man to die, you count it strange? So once did I, before I knew my Savior! 4 And oh, that he fulfilled may see the travail of his soul in me, and with his work contented be, as I with my dear Savior! 5 Yes, living, dying, let me bring my strength, my solace from this spring; that he who lives to be my King once died to be my Savior.
