Jesus, What A Friend For Sinners

John Wilbur Chapman
Rowland Prichard

1. Jesus! What a friend for sinners!
Jesus! Lover of my soul;
Friends may fail me, foes assail me,
He, my Savior, makes me whole.

Chorus: Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Hallelujah! What a friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end.

2. Jesus! What a strength in weakness!
Let me hide myself in Him.
Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing,
He, my strength, my victory wins.(Repeat chorus)

3. Jesus! What a help in sorrow!
While the billows oer me roll,
Even when my heart is breaking,
He, my comfort, helps my soul.(Repeat chorus)

4. Jesus! I do now receive Him,
More than all in Him I find.
He hath granted me forgiveness,
I am His, and He is mine.(Repeat chorus)
