Our Great Savior

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.  

Refrain  
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. [Refrain]  

3 Jesus! What a Help in sorrow!  
While the billows o'er me roll,  
Even when my heart is breaking,  
He, my Comfort, helps my soul. [Refrain]  

4 Jesus! What a Guide and Keeper!  
While the tempest still is high,  
Storms about me, night o'er takes me,  
He, my Pilot, hears my cry. [Refrain]  

5 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. [Refrain]
