No, Not One

 

1  
There's not a friend like the lowly Jesus –  
No, not one! no, not one!  
None else could heal all our soul's diseases –  
No, not one! no, not one!  
2  
No friend like Him is so high and holy –  
No, not one! no, not one!  
And yet no friend is so meek and lowly –  
No, not one! no, not one!   
3  
There's not an hour that He is not near us –  
No, not one! no, not one!  
No night so dark but His love can cheer us –  
No, not one! no, not one!     
Refrain:  
Jesus knows all about our struggles,  
He will guide till the day is done;  
There's not a friend like the lowly Jesus –  
No, not one! no, not one!

Now for something a little different...


Every once in a while I get a great desire to go to a pentecostal church.


Henceforth I call you not servants, for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth, but I have called you friends. ~John 15:15


 "None else could heal all our soul's diseases"  
Matthew 9:35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.    

 "Jesus knows all about our struggles"  
Hebrews 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.     

"meek and lowly"  
Matthew 21 21 And when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples, 2 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me. 3 And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them. 4 All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet*, saying, 5 Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. 6 And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them, 7 And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon. 8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way. 9 And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.    

Zechariah 9:9 Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.    

 "no night so dark but his love can cheer us"  
John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
