1 My path is pleasant, the sky is bright;
My yoke is easy, my burden light;
My soul is singing by day and night,
Jesus and I are friends.

Refrain:
Jesus and I are friends, true friends,
Many sweet moments with me he spends,
Oh, joy is mine, and peace divine,
For Jesus and I are friends.

2 From old companions I’ve turned away;
In search of pleasures no more I stray,
For sweet contentment is mine today,
Jesus and I are friends. [Refrain]

3 He saw me sinking in sin and shame,
And to my rescue, with love, he came;
Since then I’ve loved him and praised his name,
Jesus and I are friends. [Refrain]

4 Oh, naught shall sever my Friend and me,
I’ll cling to him for eternity;
In life, in death, this my song shall be:
Jesus and I are friends. [Refrain]
