I've Found a Friend

Author: Rev, J. G. Small Hymnal: NCH1929 #108 (1929) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: I've found a Friend, oh, such a Friend! Lyrics: 1 I've found a Friend, oh, 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, oh, 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 my own I call, I hold it for the Giver: My heart, my strength, my life, my all, Are His, and His forever. 3 I've found a Friend, oh, such a Friend! All pow'r to Him is given, To guard me on my onward course, And bring me safe to heaven. Th' eternal glories gleam 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, oh, such a Friend! So kind, and true, and tender, So wise a Counsellor 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, or earth or hell? No; I am His forever. Topics: Jesus Christ Friend Languages: English Tune Title: SUCH A FRIEND

I Could Not Do Without Thee

Author: Frances R. Havergal Hymnal: NCH1929 #109 (1929) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 I could not do without Thee, O Savior of the lost, Whose precious blood redeemed me, At such tremendous cost: Thy righteousness, Thy pardon, Thy precious blood must be My only hope and comfort, My glory and my plea. 2 I could not do without Thee, I cannot stand alone, I have no strength or goodness, No wisdom of my own; But Thou, beloved Savior, Art all in all to me, And weakness will be power, If I lean hard on Thee. 3 I could not do without Thee; No other friend can read The spirit's strange deep longings, Interpreting its need; No human heart could enter Each dim recess of mine, And soothe, and hush, and calm it, O blessed Lord, but Thine. 4 I could not do without Thee, For years are fleeting fast, And soon in solemn loneliness The river must be passed; But Thou wilt never leave me, And tho' the waves roll high, I know Thou wilt be near me, And whisper, "It is I."

O Could I Speak the Matchless Worth

Author: Rev. Samuel Medley Hymnal: NCH1929 #111 (1929) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O could I speak the matchless worth, O could I sound the glories forth Which in my Savior shine, I'd soar, and touch the heav'nly strings, And vie with Gabriel while he sings In notes almost divine, In notes almost divine. 2 I'd sing the precious blood He spilt, My ransom from the dreadful guilt Of sin, and wrath divine: I'd sing His glorious righteousness, In which all-perfect, heavn'ly dress My soul shall ever shine, My soul shall ever shine. 3 I'd sing the characters He bears, And all the forms of love He wears, Exalted on His throne: In loftiest songs of sweetest praise, I would to everlasting days Make all His glories known, Make all His glories known. 4 Well, the delightful day will come When my dear Lord will bring me home, And I shall see His face; Then with my Savior, Brother, Friend, A blest eternity I'll spend, Triumphant in His grace, Triumphant in His grace. Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ Preciousness Languages: English Tune Title: ARIEL

Immortal Love, Forever Full

Author: John G. Whittier Hymnal: NCH1929 #113 (1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Immortal Love, forever full, Forever flowing free, Forever shared, forever whole, A never-ebbing sea! 2. We may not climb the heav'nly steeps To bring the Lord Christ down; In vain we search the lowest deeps, For Him no depths can drown. 3. But warm, sweet, tender, even yet A present help is He; And faith has still its Olivet, And love its Galilee. 4. The healing of His seamless dress Is by our beds of pain; We touch Him in life's throng and press, And we are whole again. Topics: Jesus Christ Love of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: SERENITY

O for that choicest blessing Of living in Thy love, And thus on earth possessing A peace like that above. Topics: Jesus Christ Love of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: SAVOY CHAPEL

Jesus, These Eyes Have Never Seen

Author: Rev. Ray Palmer Hymnal: NCH1929 #116 (1929) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, these eyes have never seen That radiant form of Thine; The veil of sense hangs dark between Thy blessed face and mine. 2 I see Thee not, I hear Thee not, Yet art Thou oft with me; And earth hath ne'er so dear a spot As where I meet with Thee. 3 Yet though I have not seen, and still Must rest in faith alone, I love Thee, dearest Lord, - and will, Unseen, but not unknown. 4 When death these mortal eyes shall seal, And still this throbbing heart, The rending veil shall Thee reveal, All glorious as Thou art.
