[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Jesus, friend of sinners
Loved me ere I knew Him
Drew me with His cords of love
Tightly bound me to Him
Round my heart still closely twined
The ties that none can sev-er
For I am His and He is mine
Forever and forevâer
[Verse 2]
Jesus, friend of sinners
A crown of thorns You wore for me
Bruised for my transgressions
Pierced for my iniquities
The wrath of God that I de--served
Was poured out on the innocent
He took my place, my soul to save
Now I am his forev-er
[Verse 3]
Jesus, friend of sinners
I love to tell the story
Redeeming love has been my theme
And will be when in glo-ry
Not death nor life nor anything
Can ever separate me
O love that will not let me go
Yes I am his forevâer
Not death nor life nor anything
Can ever separate me
O love that will not let me go
Yes I am his forevââer
