1 I have found a Friend in Jesus,
How He must have loved me!
Now I know how sweet His peace is,
How He must have loved me!
Jesus loved me ere I knew Him,
Love that to Golgotha drew Him,
Love that bowed Him, broke Him, slew Him;
How He must have loved me!

2 Jesus was despised, rejected,
How He must have loved me!
Mocked by foes, by friends neglected,
How He must have loved me!
All alone the winepress treading,
And the hate-hedged pathway threading;
Blood and sweat His forehead beading,
How He must have loved me!

3 I was lost, but Jesus found me,
How He must have loved me!
Severed ev’ry chain that bound me,
How He must have loved me!
Jesus to the cross was given,
Hands, and feet, and side were riven;
All my sins He has forgiven,
How He must have loved me!
