He bled, he died to save me; And not alone the gift of life, But his own self he gave me. Naught 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. 3 I've found a friend, oh, such a friend! All power to him is given To guard me in my onward course, And bring me safe to Heaven. Th' eternal glories gleam afar To nerve my faint endeavor; So now to watch, to work, to war, And then to rest forever. 4 I've found a friend, oh, such a friend! So kind, so true, and tender, So wise a counselor and Guide, So mighty a defender. From him who loves me now so well What power my soul can sever? Shall life or death, or earth, or hell? No, I am his forever. Languages: English Tune Title: [I've found a friend, oh, such a friend!]
