It's good to know Jesus
It's good to know Jesus
(He's the lily of the valley)
(A bright and morning star)
It's good to know the Lord
I came to Jesus just as I was
I was weary, wounded, and sad;
I've found in Him a resting place
And He has made me glad
It's good to know Jesus
It's good to know Jesus
(He's the lily of the valley)
(A bright and morning star)
It's good to know the Lord
I love the Lord, He heard my cry
And He pitied every groan
'Long as I live while trouble rise
I'll hasten to His throne
It's good to know Jesus
It's good to know Jesus
(He's the lily of the valley)
(A bright and morning star)
It's good to know the Lord
It's good to know Him
It's good to know the Lord
Oh, it's good to know Him
It's good to know the Lord
