Melodies of Salvation ‎#191

191. My Faithful Friend

1 I have no friend like Jesus,
Who gave His life for me;
And who supplieth daily
My need so graciously.

Chorus:
O, will you come to Jesus,
My faithful friend so true?
My heart is yearning, yearning,
That you may know Him, too.

2 My heart was once so weary,
And overcharg’d with care;
But now is filled with gladness,
And never knows despair. [Chorus]

3 O, come as I am pleading,
As He is seeking you;
Receive the blessed Saviour,
And start your life anew. [Chorus]

4 He waits responsive answer,
O, do not say Him nay;
But “Yea, I will, blest Saviour,
Be thine this very day.” [Chorus]
