I have a Friend so precious,

He loves me with such tender love,

He loves so faithfully;
 G7G7       C majorC
I could not live apart from Him,

I love to feel Him nigh,

Sometimes I'm faint and weary,
  FF        C majorC
He knows that I am weak,
C majorC
And as He bids me lean on Him
  G+G
His help I gladly seek;
  G7G7       C majorC
He leads me in the paths of light,
 C7C7      FF
Beneath a sunny sky,
  C majorC              G+G  C majorC
And so we walk together, My Lord and I.

He tells me what I ought to do,

He tells me how to try,
  C majorC              G+G  C majorC
And so we talk together, My Lord and I.


Verse 4:

C majorC
He knows how I am longing
   FF       C majorC
Some weary soul to win,
C majorC
And so He bids me go and speak
  G+G
The loving word for Him;
  G7G7        C majorC
He bids me tell His wondrous love,
  C7C7       FF
And why He came to die,
  C majorC              G+G  C majorC
And so we work together, My Lord and I.
