Verse 1
There's One above all earthly friends
Whose love all earthly love transcends,
It is my Lord and Christ divine,
My Lord because, I know He's mine.

Chorus
I know He's mine, this friend so dear,
He lives with me He's ever near;
Ten thousand charms, around Him shine,
And, best of all, I know He's mine.

Verse 2
He's mine because He died for me
He saved my soul, He set me free,
With joy I worship at His shrine,
And cry, `Praise God,` I know He's mine

Chorus
I know He's mine, this friend so dear,
He lives with me He's ever near;
Ten thousand charms, around Him shine,
And, best of all, I know He's mine.

Verse 3
He's mine because He's in my heart,
And never, never will we part,
Just as the branch is to the vine,
I'm joined to Christ, I know He's mine.

Chorus
I know He's mine, this friend so dear,
He lives with me He's ever near;
Ten thousand charms, around Him shine,
And, best of all, I know He's mine.

Verse 4
Some day upon the street of gold
Mine eyes His glory shall behold
Then while His arms around me twine,
I'll cry for joy, `I know He's mine.`

Chorus
I know He's mine, this friend so dear,
He lives with me He's ever near;
Ten thousand charms, around Him shine,
And, best of all, I know He's mine.
