I've Found a Friend -ins269.mid - [Play Midi]

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 power 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 power my soul can sever?
   Shall life or death, or earth or hell? No; I am His forever
