There’s a Friend We Love

Author: J. L. H. Hymnal: Songs of Sovereign Grace #49 (1897) First Line: There’s a friend we love who is ever near Refrain First Line: O Jesus, our Jesus, Friend ever dear Lyrics: 1 There’s a friend we love who is ever near, And who guides us on our way; When our hearts are sad He can make us glad, And He turns all our nights to day. Refrain: O Jesus, our Jesus, Friend ever dear; We can hear Thy voice and our hearts rejoice, For we know that our Lord is near. 2 Thro’ the storms may come and the tempests beat, And their strength we must endure; We are not afraid, for our Lord has said, “Fear ye not for thy rest is sure.” [Refrain] 3 When at last we stand by the Jordan’s wave, And our time to leave has come; We will say goodbye with a tear-dried eye And our Saviour will take us home. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There’s a friend we love who is ever near]
