Jesus Is My Friend.

Amidst the shifting tides of human care,

When earthly anchors drift and fade away,

There is a constant friend who meets us there,
Whose steady hand remains our truest stay.
He does not walk above our mortal grief,
Nor watch our heavy burdens from afar;
In every silent tear he brings relief,
And guides the spirit like a morning star.
He speaks of peace when stormy waters roll,
And offers rest to all the weary heart,
A quiet refuge for the searching soul,
A faithful bond that time can never part.
No deeper love or greater grace is known,
Than he who calls the humble heart his own.
