There’s No Other Friend Like Jesus

lyricist: Ida Benham, 1871
Composer: From Mozart

There’s no oth­er friend like Je­sus

None so faith­ful

none so true;

Though the waves break wild­ly o’er us

He will guide us safe­ly through;

Storms and tem­pests shrink be­fore Him

He can calm them at His will:

Jesus

calm our stor­my pas­sions

With Thy won­drous Peace

be still.

There’s no oth­er friend like Je­sus

He who died our souls to save;

He who dwelt on earth in meek­ness;

Healed

and pi­tied

and for­gave.

Still He pi­ties

still He loves us

In His ho­ly

hap­py home

And with voice of gra­cious mer­cy

Bids the wan­der­ing sin­ner

come.

There’s no oth­er friend like Je­sus

Holy an­gels

chant the song;

Sing His love and won­drous mer­cy;

Children

join the heav’n­ly throng.

Raise the joy­ful

hap­py chor­us

Thank Him for His lov­ing grace

Let it be your hap­py por­tion

To pro­claim the Sav­ior’s praise.
