The Lily of the Valley (also known as I’ve Found a Friend in Jesus)
I’ve found a friend in Jesus, He’s everything 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 every care on Him to roll.
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows bore; In temptation, He’s my strong and mighty tower;
I’ll all for Him forsake now, He keeps me by His power. Though all the world forsakes me, and Satan tempts me sore,
Through Jesus, I shall safely reach the goal. He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
He’ll never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here, So 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. When crowned at last in glory, I’ll see His blessed face, Where rivers of delight shall ever roll.
He’s the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star, He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.

A CALL TO SALVATION:
John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
Romans 10:9-10 9That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness, and with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.
John 3:5-6 5Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. 6That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 7
