Chronade Nallyways I Ve Found A Friend Lyrics

[Verse 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.

[Verse 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;
Nought 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.

[Verse 3]
I've found a friend, O such a friend!
All power to Him is given,
To guard me on my onward course,
And bring me safe to heaven:
The eternal glories gleam afar
To nerve my faint endeavor;
So now to watch, to work, to war,
And then to rest forever.

[Verse 4]
I've found a friend, O such a friend!
So kind and true and tender,
So wise a counselor 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.
