Friend of sinners.

One there is above all others,

Well deserves the name of Friend;

His is love beyond a brother’s,

Costly, free, and knows no end;

Hallelujah!

Costly, free, and knows no end.

2 Which of all our friends to save us,

Could or would have shed his blood?

But this Saviour died, to have us

Reconciled in him to God.

Hallelujah!

Reconciled in him to God.

3 When he lived on earth abaséd,

Friend of sinners was his name;

Now above all glory raiséd,

He rejoices in the same;

Hallelujah!

He rejoices in the same.

Newton.
