1. I've found a Friend who is all to me, His love is ever true; I love to tell how He lifted me And what His grace can do for you. 2. He saves me from every sin and harm, Secures my soul each day; I'm leaning strong on His mighty arm; I know He'll guide me all the way. 3. When poor and needy and all alone, In love He said to me, "Come unto Me and I'll lead you home, To live with Me eternally." Chorus: Saved by His pow'r divine, Saved to new life sublime! Life now is sweet and my joy is complete, For I'm saved, saved, saved!

The author and composer of this hymn, Jack Scholfield, was a singing evangelist. He wrote “Saved, Saved!” in 1911 while assisting in evangelistic meetings. He explained, “The melody just came to me, almost as a gift. Then I simply tried to make the words fit the tune. It was popular from the start.”
