Christian Hymns ‎#316

316. He's My Very Best Friend

1 The Saviour doth hear me when I pray,
I'm trusting in Him from day to day;
He keepeth me in the narrow way,
He's my very, my very best Friend.

Chorus:
I'll never forget my blessed Saviour,
He's my very best Friend, my very best Friend;
No, I'll never forget my blessed Saviour,
He's my very, my very best Friend.

2 There's heavenly sunlight in my soul,
Since Jesus redeem'd and made me whole;
I've given to Him complete control,
He's my very, my very best Friend. [Chorus]

3 How blessed to walk at Jesus' side,
He keepeth my soul whate'er betide;
A wonderful Saviour, holy guide,
He's my very, my very best Friend. [Chorus]
