Jesus What a Friend for Sinners

At our new church plant service Sunday night they had several hymns printed in the bulletin and this hymn has always been a favorite and I thought I'd share it with you. It was such a wonderful surprise to see it in the bulletin. It's always comforting to be reminded of it's simple but unfailing truths.

Jesus! What a friend for sinners!

Jesus! Lover of my soul;

Friends may fail me, foes assail me,

He, my Savior, makes me whole.

(chorus) Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Hallelujah! What a friend

Saving, helping, keeping, loving

He is with me to the end.

Jesus What a strength in weakness

Let me hide myself in Him

Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing

He, my strength, my victory wins.

(chorus)

Jesus What a help in sorrow

While the billows o'er me roll

Even when my heart is breaking

He my comfort, helps my soul

(chorus)

Jesus I do now receive Him

More than all in Him I find

He hath granted me forgiveness

I am His and He is mine

Hallelujah What a Savior

Hallelujah What a friend

Saving, helping, keeping, loving

He is with me to the end.

I hope you know and or reminded that He is with us when everything else seems to be falling away, your heart is breaking and the issues of your daily life is roll over you like waves knocking you down, taking your breath away. He is there, our Friend, loves us, never fails us.
