THE LILY OF THE VALLEY
1. I have found a
friend in Jesus, He's ev'rything to me,
He's the fairest of
ten thousand to my soul;
The Lily of the
Valley, In Him alone I see,
All I need to
cleanse and make me fully whole.
In sorrow He's my
comfort, in trouble He's my stay,
He tells me ev'ry
care on Him to roll;
Refrain
He's the Lily of
the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,
He's the fairest of
ten thousand to my soul.
2. He all my griefs
has taken, and all my sorrows borne,
In temptation He's
my strong and mighty tower,
I have all for Him
forsaken, and all my idols torn
From my heart, and
now He keeps me by His pow'r
Though all the
world forake me, and Satan tempt me sore,
Through Jesus I
shall safely reach the goal.
3. He will never,
never leave me, Nor yet forsake me here,
While I live by
faith and do His blessed will
A wall of fire
about me, I've nothing now to fear,
With His manna He
my hungry soul shall fill;
Then sweeping up to
glory to see His blessed face,
Where rivers of
delight shall ever roll.
