I choose Jesus

When I need someone in time of grief,
Someone my cheer to be,
Jesus I choose, for he gives relief,
He is the best for me.

Refrain

I choose Jesus when I need a friend,
What I need I know that he will send;
I have proved him, good and true is he;
I choose Jesus, he is the best for me.

When I need someone to guide my soul
Over the stormy sea,
Always to Jesus I give control,
He is the best for me.

Refrain

When I need help to defeat the foe,
Someone my shield to be,
Always to Jesus in faith I go,
He is the best for me.

Refrain

When all my trials on earth are O’er,
And the dark stream I see,
Jesus shall bear me to yonder shore,
He is the best for me.
