Ellsworth Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: I have found the Saviour precious Refrain First Line: Come, O come, dear friends, to Jesus Lyrics: 1 I have found the Saviour precious, He has fill’d my soul with cheer; I have found Him kind and gracious, And would tell it far and near. Refrain: Come, O come, dear friends, to Jesus, Since His love is full and free; In His hand is life eternal, There’s enough for you and me. 2 I have found the Saviour precious, He is fairest of the fair; He is chief among ten-thousand, O that all His grace may share. [Chorus] 3 I have found the Saviour precious, Never failing in my need; For my hungry soul providing, Jesus is a friend indeed.
