The Lily Of The Valley

by William S. Hays

Verse 1
I Have 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.
Verse 2
O He All My Grief Has Taken, And All My Sorrows Borne,
In Temp-tation He’s My Strong And Mighty Tower;
I Have All For Him Forsaken, And All My Idols Torn,
From My Heart, And Now He Keeps Me By His Power.
Though All The World Forsake Me, And Satan Tempts Me Sore,
Through Jesus I Shall Safely Reach The Goal;
Verse 3
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!
Chorus
He’s The Lily Of The Valley, The Bright And Morning Star
He’s The Fairest Of Ten Thousand To My Soul.
