It's Just Like His Great Love

Author: Edna R. Worrell Appears in 85 hymnals Topics: Joy First Line: A Friend I have, called Jesus Refrain First Line: It's just like Jesus to roll the clouds away Lyrics: 1 A friend I have, called Jesus,Whose love is strong and true,And never fails howe'er 'tis tried,No matter what I do;I sinned against this love of His,But when I knelt to pray,Confessing all my guilt to Him, The sin-clouds rolled away. Refrain:It's just like Jesus to roll the clouds away,It's just like Jesus to keep me day by day,It's just like Jesus all along the way,It's just like His great love. 2 Sometimes when clouds of troubleBedim the sky above,I cannot see my Savior's face,I doubt His wondrous love;But He, from Heaven's mercy seat,Beholding my despair,In pity bursts the clouds between, And shows me He is there. [Refrain]3 When sorrows' clouds o'er take me,And break upon my head,When life seems worse than useless,And I were better dead;I take my grief to Jesus then, Nor do I go in vain,For heav'nly hope He gives that cheersLike sunshine after rain. [Refrain]4 Oh, I could sing foreverOf Jesus' love divine,Of all His care and tendernessFor this poor life of mine;His love is in and over all,And wind and waves obeyWhen Jesus whispers, “Peace, be still!” And rolls the clouds away. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [A Friend I have, called Jesus]
