Hymn Context Compare
That can to bliss and life re­store
Glory, glo­ry, hal­le­lu­jah.
They will not be al­ways thus.
Discouraged I would oft­en be—
All at once pos­sessed her mind,
A friend of Je­sus! O what bliss
What land so fa­vored of the skies,
O what shall I do to be saved?

So vile

Thy par­don­ing love, so free, so sweet,
It seemed that Christ could not en­ter in.
King of kings, to love Thee so?
Except I know I’ll be like Him
Yet now for­give­ness find.
Should ev­er have a friend like this
How changed, alas! are truths di­vine,
O how to the fold may I come,
