Friends

A friend of Jesus, oh how blest to be!
That one of low estate, should share such company.
Lord, who am I that You, in all my shame
Would look on me, or even know my name?
This Son of God in such humility
Became the sinners' friend through Calvary.

That I, a child of God could ever be,
Reveals his love, his glorious mystery.
Called out of sin, part of his family
Though but a worm, he elevated me
To sit with him in places heavenly.
A friend of Jesus, oh how blest to be!
