He’s a Friend of Mine

Why should I charge my soul with care?

The wealth of ev­ery mine

Belongs to Christ

God’s Son and heir

And He’s a friend of mine.

Yes

He’s a friend of mine

And He with me doth all things share;

Since all is Christ’s

and Christ is mine

Why should I have a care?

For Je­sus is a friend of mine.

The sil­ver moon

the gold­en sun

The count­less stars that shine

Are His alone

yes

ev­ery one

And He’s a friend of mine.

He dai­ly spreads a glo­ri­ous feast

And at His ta­ble dine

The whole cre­ation

man and beast

And He’s a friend of mine.

And when He comes in bright ar­ray

And leads the con­quer­ing line

It will be glo­ry then to say

That He’s a friend of mine.
