Hymn 503
There's One above all earthly friends
Meter: L.M. & Ref.
Scripture: John 15:9
1
There's One above all earthly friends
Whose love all earthly love transcends
It is my Lord and Christ divine,
My Lord because, I know He’s mine.
CHORUS
I knew He’s mine, this friend so dear,
He lives with me He’s ever near,
Ten thousand charms, around Him shine.
And, best of all, I know He’s mine.
2
He’s mine because He died for me
He saved my soul, He set me free,
With joy I worship at His shrine,
And cry, “Praise God." I know He’s mine.
3
He's mine because He’s in my heart
And never, never will we part,
Just as the branch is to the vine,
I’m joined to Christ, I know He’s mine.
4
Soon day upon the street of gold
Mine eyes His glory shall behold
Then while His arms around me twine,
I’ll cry for joy, “I know He’s mine’’.
