I have a dear Savior
Who loves me, I know,
And Whose will I delight to do;
He’s present to cheer me
wherever I go—
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
I often have proved Him,
I ever will love Him—
Was there ever a friend so true?
This wonderful Friend
is a Helper indeed;
He has promised
to lead me through,
And closer He comes
than a brother in need—
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
I often have proved Him,
I ever will love Him—
Was there ever a friend so true?
He soothes me in sorrow
with songs in the night,
And inspires me with hope anew;
He fills me with courage
my battles to fight—
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
I often have proved Him,
I ever will love Him—
Was there ever a friend so true?
His love is a fountain
of blessing so pure,
Ever flowing for me, for you;
His power is unfailing,
His promise is sure—
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
Was there ever a friend so true?
I often have proved Him,
I ever will love Him—
Was there ever a friend so true?
