Our Friend
Songs 5:16
His mouth is most sweet: yes, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.


To have a true friend is a blessing beyond all price. I wish to show that there is a loving Friend for all mankind.

1. Who is our Friend? Men have always been asking, Who is God? In reply, the Lord our God appeared in a human body, called Jesus, and showed that He is the Friend of Man.

2. Our Friend sees all our trouble. O friendless one, tossed about on the sea of life, our Friend sees you, and is at hand to comfort you.

3. Our Friend is always present with us.

4. Our Friend can help us all times.

5. Our Friend is our Mediator, who saves us from the result of our sins.

6. Brothers, love our Friend! And, like Him, love the friendless!

7. Let us also show friendship to all creatures which God has made.

(W. Birch.).
