lyrics

Poor, weak, and worthless tho’ I am
I have a rich, almighty friend
Jesus the Savior is his name
He freely loves and without end

He ransomed me from hell with blood
And by his pow’r my foes controlled
He found me wand’ring far from God
And brought me to his chosen fold

He cheers my heart, my need supplies
And says that I shall shortly be
Enthroned with him above the skies
O! What a friend Christ is to me!
