528 ~ Oh, the Best Friend to Have Is Jesus

1

Oh, the best friend to have is Jesus; When the cares of life upon you roll, He will heal the wounded heart, He will strength and grace impart; Oh, the best friend to have is Jesus.


Refrain

The best friend to have is Jesus, He will help you when you fall, He will hear you when you call; Oh, the best friend to have is Jesus.

2

What a friend I have found in Jesus! Peace and comfort to my soul He brings; Leaning on His mighty arm, I will fear no ill nor harm; Oh, the best friend to have is Jesus.

3

Though I pass through the night of sorrow, And the chilly waves of Jordan roll, Never need I shrink nor fear, For my Saviour is so near; Oh, the best friend to have is Jesus.

4

When at last to our home we gather, With the faithful who have gone before, We will sing upon the shore, Praising Him forevermore; Oh, the best friend to have is Jesus.
