Christ Church Cambridge - Jesus, Friend and Precious Saviour

Jesus, Friend and precious Saviour
Word in flesh with truth and grace
You came down to dwell among us
Friend of sinners You embraced
God of glory emptied self and
Took the nature of a man
Jesus tempted, still found sinless
All our faults You understand

On the cross You died to save us
Rose again, defeated death
Now exalted, worth all worship
You've redeemed our ev'ry breath
What a myst'ry, Lord, that You should
Even choose to call us friends
Only Your great sacrifice can
Bring together God and men

In the quiet of the morning
Moments 'till the start of day
You remind me of Your mercies
Never ceasing come what may
Even when I fail to please You
In my thoughts and words and deeds
You extend Your gracious arms and
Bring the healing that I need

When the heavens and the earth fade
When all things are brought to light
You will welcome those who trust You
As Your perfect, spotless bride
Oh what joy will fill Your people
Oh what glorious unity
Jesus, Friend and precious Saviour
Friend for all eternity
