I have found a friend in Jesus, He's everything to me,
                          D7                A
He's the fairest of ten – thou - sand to my soul;

In sorrow He's my comfort, in trouble He's my stay;

He tells me every care on Him to roll.

He all my grief has tak - en, and all my sorrows borne;
                         D7                A
In temp - tation He's my strong and mighty tower;
       D                 D7            G            D
I have all for Him for – sak - en, and all my idols torn

From my heart and now He keeps me by His pow’r.

Though all the world forsake me and Satan tempt me sore,

Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal;

D                                  G              D
He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here,
                          D7                A
While I live by faith and do His bles - sed will;
  D                D7            G              D
A wall of fire a - bout me, I've nothing now to fear;
         D7             A                 D
With His man - na He my hungry soul shall fill.
     G                           D
Then sweeping up to glory to see His blessed face,
      Bm             D                A
Where rivers of de - light shall ever roll;
 
 
[Chorus]
 
         D           D7
He's the Lily of the Valley,
    G                  D
The Bright and Morning Star;
         D7               A              D
He's the fairest of ten - thousand to my soul.
