O Bondoso Amigo
Harpa Cristã
The Kind Friend
How kind a friend is Christ!
He bore our pain
And sends us to take
Our cares to the Lord
Does the sorrowful heart lack
Joy, peace, consolation?
It's because we don't take
Everything to God in prayer
Are you weak and burdened
With worries and fear?
To Jesus, eternal refuge
Go with faith to expose your trouble!
Do your friends despise you?
Tell Him in prayer
And with His tender love
You will have peace in your heart
Christ is a true friend
He showed us this
When to take with Him
The guilty one He incarnated
He shed His pure blood
To wash away our stain
Joy in life and in the future
In Him we can achieve
