<p>I have found a friend in Jesus, He&#8217;s everything to me,<br>
He&#8217;s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul;<br>
The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see<br>
All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole.<br>
In sorrow He&#8217;s my comfort, in trouble He&#8217;s my stay;<br>
He tells me every care on Him to roll.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">He&#8217;s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star,<br>
He&#8217;s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.</p>
<p>He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows borne;<br>
In temptation He&#8217;s my strong and mighty tower;<br>
I have all for Him forsaken, and all my idols torn<br>
From my heart and now He keeps me by His power.<br>
Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempt me sore,<br>
Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here,<br>
While I live by faith and do His bless&egrave;d will;<br>
A wall of fire about me, I&#8217;ve nothing now to fear,<br>
From His manna He my hungry soul shall fill.<br>
Then sweeping up to glory to see His bless&egrave;d face,<br>
Where the rivers of delight shall ever roll.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
