532 - What a Friend We Have in Jesus

Tune: Friendship

Yessireee Billy-Bob, this is one dandy little hymn.  Maybe it's the cowboy in me (born and raised in cowboy country), maybe it's my appreciation for corn in music, or maybe it's just the fact that this actually is a good hymn -- but I love it!  This is one of my favorite hymns.  I like the poetry, I think it's well put together, and I think the message is timeless.  Sometimes I poke fun at corny hymns, it's true ... but this one I truly like.  It's a personal thing ...
