Songs Of Zion – English

There’s not a Friend like the lowly Jesus:

by

1.There’s not a Friend like the lowly Jesus:
No, not one! no, not one!
None else could heal all our souls’ diseases:
No, not one! no, not one!

Jesus knows all about our struggles;
He will guide ’til the day is done:
There’s not a Friend like the lowly Jesus:
No, not one! no, not one!

2.No friend like Him is so high and holy,
No, not one! no, not one!
And yet no friend is so meek and lowly,
No, not one! no, not one!

3.There’s not an hour that He is not near us,
No, not one! no, not one!
No night so dark, but His love can cheer us,
No, not one! no, not one!

4.Did ever saint find this Friend forsake him?
No, not one! no, not one!
Or sinner find that He would not take him?
No, not one! no, not one!

5.Was e’er a gift like the Savior given?
No, not one! no, not one!
Will He refuse us the bliss of heaven?
No, not one! no, not one!

I gave My life for thee,

by

1.I gave My life for thee,

My precious blood I shed,

That thou might’st ransomed be,

And quickened up from the dead;

I gave, I gave My life for thee,

What hast thou giv’n for Me?

 

2.I spent long years for thee – in weariness and woe,

That an eternity-Of joy thou mightest know,

I spent I spent long years for thee,

Hast thou spent one for me ?

 

3. My Father’s home of light,

My rainbow-circled throne-I left for earthly night,

For wandering sad and lone;

I left, I left it all for thee,

Hast thou left aught for Me?

 

4.I suffered much for thee,

More than thy tongue can tell,

Of bitter agony, To rescue thee from hell;

I suffered, suffered much for thee,

What can’st thou bear for Me?

 

5.Lord,let my life be given,

And every moment spent,

For God,for souls,for heaven

And all earth’s ties be rent

Thou gavest Thou gavest Thyself for me,

Now I give all for Thee.
