Our Great Savior
This song was first published in 1910. The music was written much
earlier by Rowland Prichard. The Text was written by J. Wilbur Chapman.
Another title for this song is: "Jesus! What a Friend for sinners!"
 
Our Great Savior
Jesus, what a Friend for sinners!
Jesus! Lover of my soul;
Friends may fail me, foes assail me,
He, my Savior, makes me whole.

Refrain
Hallelujah! What a Savior!
Hallelujah! What a Friend!
Saving, helping, keeping, loving,
He is with me to the end.

Jesus! What a Strength in weakness!
Let me hide myself in Him;
Tempted, tried, and sometimes failing,
He, my Strength, my victory wins.
(Refrain)

Jesus! What a Help in sorrow!
While the billows over me roll,
Even when my heart is breaking,
He, my Comfort, helps my soul.
(Refrain)

Jesus! What a Guide and Keeper!
While the tempest still is high,
Storms about me, night overtakes me,
He my Pilot, hears my cry.
(Refrain)

Jesus! I do now receive Him,
More than all in Him I find,
He hath granted me forgiveness,
I am His and He is mine.
(Refrain)
