I've Found a Friend

Author: James G. Small Appears in 389 hymnals Matching Instances: 114 First Line: I've found a Friend, O such a Friend! Lyrics: 1 I’ve found a Friend, O 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, O 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 mine own I call, I’ll hold it for the Giver; My heart, my strength, my life, my all Are His, and His forever. 3 I’ve found a Friend, O 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: Christ Friend; Christ Friend Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3 Used With Tune: [I've found a Friend, O such a Friend!]

Behold, How Pleasant and How Good

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 17 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1. Behold, how pleasant and how good That we, one Lord confessing, Together dwell in brotherhood, Our unity expressing. ’Tis like the oil on Aaron’s head, The seal of ordination, That o’er his robes the sweetness shed Of perfect consecration. 2. Behold, how pleasant and how good That we, one Lord confessing, Together dwell in brotherhood, Our unity expressing. ’Tis like the dew from Hermon fair On Zion’s hill descending; The Lord commands His blessing here In life that is unending.
