Author: Fanny Crosby Hymnal: Joy to the World #3 (1879) First Line: Would'st thou find a friend to love thee Refrain First Line: Go, in trusting faith believing Lyrics: 1 Would'st thou find a friend to love thee
More than human hearts can love,
One who knows thy every trial?
Such a friend thou hast above.
Chorus:
Go, in trusting faith believing,
Cast thy burden on the Lord,
He has promised to receive thee
Take thy Savior at his word.
2 Would'st thou find the blessed fountain,
Flowing at the cross so free?
Go to Jesus; he will guide thee;
Cleansed by him thy soul shall be. [Chorus]
3 Would'st thou find a friend to teach thee
How thy soul by faith may live,
How to reach those heights of rapture
Earthly joy can never give? [Chorus]
4 Would'st thou find a friend to shield thee,
When with clouds thy sky is dim?
Go to Jesus; ask his mercy;
Lo, he calls thee, go to him. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Would'st thou find a friend to love thee]
Go to Jesus
