Meaning:

1
On Calvary’s cross, we see the fullness of love;
God made me, once His enemy, into His friend.
Jesus shed His blood to save me,
And this loving Savior is my dearest Friend.

He is my comfort in sorrow,
My healing in sickness.
In the midst of terrible trials,
He holds me close to His heart
With His everlasting arms.
This loving Savior is my dearest Friend.

2
Because Christ’s love compels me,
I have denied myself and taken up my cross.
I will bear rejection and shame
And go outside the camp with Him.
This loving Savior is my dearest Friend.

3
That I may experience the power of His resurrection,
And be united with Him in His death,
And share in the sufferings of Christ—
This loving Savior is my dearest Friend.

4
“I will never, never abandon you.”
I will not be afraid, for You are with me.
Even if I walk through the fire,
I will not be burned;
Even the mighty waters cannot overwhelm me.

5
With pillars of fire and cloud
Going before me and behind me,
The Commander of the heavenly armies is with me.
Remember that the battle belongs to the Lord;
So shout for joy beneath the banner of His love!
