Há Um Amigo Mui Chegado

There is a very close friend, Christ the Lord
For He saved us from sin and fear
This friend was in agony
When He was redeeming the world
And showing God's love; give Him praise!

To know Him is to have life, Christ the Lord
In Him we are allowed peace in labor
He pours out His grace upon us
For He loves us
And calls everyone to Himself; give Him praise!

He is always the same, never changes. Christ the Lord
And the helping stone; come, sinner!
Good manna in the desert
Our guide, true friend
His love is an open heaven; give Him praise!
