Jesus what a friend for sinners

Jesus what a Friend for sinners
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jesus what a friend for sinners!
Jesus! lover of my soul;
Friends may fail me me, foes assail me,
He my Saviour, makes me whole.

####Chorus:

Hallelujah! what a Saviour!
Hallelujah! what a friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He'll be 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 vict'ry wins.

####

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.

####

Jesus! What a guide and keeper!
While the tempest still is high,
Storms about me, night o'er-takes me,
He, my pilot, hears my cry.

####

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.
