The Lily of the Valley

I've found a friend in Jesus, He's everything to me He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see All I need to cleanse and make me fully whole In sorrow He's my comfort, in trouble He's my stay He tells me every care on Him to roll He's the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul Oh, He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows borne In temptation, He's my strong and mighty tow'r I have all for Him forsaken and all my idols torn From my heart and now He keeps me by His pow'r Though all the world forsake me and Satan tempt me sore Through Jesus, I shall safely reach the goal He's the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here While I live by faith and do His blessed will A wall of fire about me, I've nothing now to fear With His manna, He my hungry soul shall fill Then sweeping up to glory to see His blessed face Where rivers of delight shall ever roll He's the Lily of the Valley, the Bright and Morning Star He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul
