Why should I charge my soul with care? The wealth of every mine Belongs to Christ, God’s Son and Heir, And He’s a Friend of mine.
Refrain: Yes, He’s a Friend of mine, And He with me doth all things share; Since all is Christ’s, and Christ is mine, Why should I have a care? For Jesus is a Friend of mine.
The silver moon, the golden sun, The countless stars that shine, Are His alone, yes, every one, And He’s a Friend of mine.
He daily spreads a glorious feast, And at His table dine The whole creation, man and beast, And He’s a Friend of mine.
And when He comes in bright array, And leads the conqu’ring line, It will be glory then to say, “And He’s a Friend of mine.”
