JESUS THE BEAUTIFUL.

By James Mudge

[James Mudge, in Zion's Herald.]

THERE is no friend like Jesus, I've proved Him o'er and o'er; His love is like no other love; How could He love me more? He always does the best for me, Whatever may betide; And so I trust Him fully; He will provide.

There is no king like Jesus, The Monarch of the sky; How glad I am to serve this Lord! How sweet for Him to die! His army never knows defeat, His power no foe can face; And so I'm sure of victory In every case.

There is no sin in Jesus, The spotless Lamb of God; The rough and thorny paths of life With holy steps He trod. He bids me follow where He goes; Full strength comes with each day; And so I've no temptation From Him to stray.

There is all joy in Jesus, All gladness and delight, He turns my sorrow into song, He makes my darkness light. Through all earth's thick entanglements He leads, my perfect Guide; And so I cling the closer To His dear side.
