1 There is no other Friend like Jesus,
Ev’ry need of my heart He knows;
For His love tempers ev’ry sorrow,
And His peace freely He bestows.

Refrain:
There is no other Friend
Like Jesus, like Jesus,
There is no other Friend like Him,
So faithful, so strong and true.

2 There is no other Friend like Jesus,
To dispell ev’ry doubt and fear;
when the tempests are raging ‘round me,
There is no one like Him to cheer. [Refrain]

3 There is no other Friend like Jesus,
And His footsteps I would pursue;
There is no other Friend like Jesus,
In life’s conflicts to help me thro’. [Refrain]
