Ab                       Eb7                              Ab
I’ve found a Friend; oh, such a Friend! He loved me ere I knew Him;
Db Ab Eb7 Ab
He drew me with the cords of love, And thus He bound me to Him.
Eb7 Ab Db Bb Ab Eb
And ’round my heart still closely twine Those ties which nought can se-ver,
Eb7 Ab Db Ab Eb7 Ab
For I am His, and He is mine, For-ever and forev-er.
[[Full Lyrics]] [Verse 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 nought can sever, For I am His, and He is mine, Forever and forever. [Verse 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. 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; oh, such a Friend! All power to Him is given; To guard me on my upward 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; oh, such a Friend! So kind, and true, and tender, So wise a counselor and guide, So mighty a defender. From Him, who loveth me so well, What power my soul can sever? Shall life or death, or earth, or hell? No; I am His forever.
