I’ve found a Friend; oh, such a Friend! He loved me ere I knew Him;
Bb F C7 F
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 se-ver,
C7 F Bb F C7 F
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.
