Jesus, the Good Friend
I found a good friend: Jesus, the Savior
The chosen one among thousands for me
From the valleys is the lily, the strong Mediator
Who purifies and keeps me for Himself
Beloved Comforter, my protector from evil
My solicitude He takes upon Himself
From the valleys is the lily, the morning star
The chosen one among thousands for me
He took all my pains, I gave Him all my sorrows
He is my fortress in temptation
I left everything for Him, burned the idols
He keeps my heart holy
Even if the world abandons me, the tempter pursues me
Jesus guards me until the end of life
He never forsakes me, nor will He abandon me
If I live faithfully and obediently
A wall of fire will protect me
Until the time of my death comes
Then, flying to the heavens, I will see His glory
Where pain and death never come
From the valleys is the lily, the morning star
The chosen one among thousands for me
The chosen one among thousands for me
The chosen one among thousands for me
Hallelujah
He is the best friend
Glory to Jesus, glory to Jesus
