I found a Friend when life seemed not worth living
I found a Friend so tender and forgiving
I can't conceive how such a thing could be
That Jesus cares for even me

Chorus
Each day, each year, my faith in him is growing,
He's ever near, his love is overflowing
I have no fear my worldly cares are few
I can depend on Him to see me through
I found a Friend, He can be your Friend too.

I found a Friend and now He walks beside me
His hand to lead, to comfort and to guide me
When clouds appear I talk to Him awhile,
He's taught this heart of mine to smile

Chorus
Because He came, my soul will live in glory,
I'll praise His name and tell my Saviours story,
What friend so true would give his all for you,
I found a friend and life began anew
I'm sure you'll find He is your Friend too
