When the sun shines bright and your heart is light,
Jesus is the Friend you need;
When the clouds hang low in this world of woe,
Jesus is the Friend you need.

Refrain

Jesus is the Friend you need,
Such a Friend is He indeed;
He Who noteth ev�ry tear,
He will banish ev�ry fear,
Jesus is the Friend you need.

If you�re lost in sin, all is dark within,
Jesus is the Friend you need;
God alone can save through the Son He gave,
Jesus is the Friend you need.

Refrain

When in that sad hour, when in death�s grim pow�r,
Jesus is the Friend you need;
If you would prepare �gainst the tempter�s snare,
Jesus is the Friend you need.

Refrain

When the cares of life all around are rife,
Jesus is the Friend you need;
Glory to His Name, always He�s the same,
Jesus is the Friend you need.
