Jesus, What a Friend for Sinners Songtext
von Michael Card

Come, Thou long-expected Jesus
Born to set Thy people free
From our fears and sins release us
Let us find our rest in Thee

Israel′s strength and consolation
Hope of all the earth Thou art
Dear desire of every nation
Joy of every longing heart

Jesus, what a friend for sinners
Jesus, lover of my soul
Friends may fail me, foes assail me
He, my Savior, makes me whole

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


Jesus, what a help in sorrow
While the billows over me roll
Even when my heart is breaking
He, my comfort, helps my soul

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

Jesus, I do now adore Him
More than all in Him, I find
He has granted me forgiveness
I am His, and He is mine

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

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