.. ·ro'fiAILEUN'f:itCJiMiGi)
Jn 1s.i·i;i=ii1ENDSH°ii:i/Eph 2iiiGFiiit ituoE

I have found a true friend who's everlasting,
He is more than any kin to me;
More than silver, more than gold, and more than copper,
Of all peoples Jesus Christ is your best friend.
CHORUS
//1 have Jesus, only Jesus,
He's the lily in the valley, He's my Lord.//
2
Sharon's rose, He's the fragrance of the flowers,
In the valley He's the lily, perfect, pure;
For the soul that has been saddened and defeated,
His sweet fragrance changes everything to love.
3
He's compassionate, benign, tender, and loving,
He is slow to anger, swift in love;
With His love He raises up all broken-hearted,
Jesus Christ is only love and only grace.
619. l THE LORD
························roJtsus····
Rev 6.10 ADVENT
I, the Lord, with voice like thunder,
And the sound of godly triumph;
I am crowned and clad with vict'ry,
On the clouds I will return.
CHORUS
Oh, Lord, my God, when will you come and avenge,
The blood of all of your prophets,
And the saints that died on this Earth?
Until you return in glory.
The heavenly glow of daylight,
That's more resplendent than the sun,
More than the stars in the cosmos.
