Acquaint thy­self with Je­sus,
The sin­ner’s tru­est friend;
A pri­vi­lege most bless­èd
To all He doth ex­tend.
His love for men sur­pass­es
The warm­est earth­ly love;
Acquaint thy­self with Je­sus,
And His true friend­ship prove.

Acquaint thy­self with Je­sus,
No one like Him could lead;
No other friend can help you
In ev­ery time of need.
No oth­er feels so deep­ly
For all thy care and grief;
Acquaint thy­self with Je­sus,
And He will give re­lief.

Acquaint thy­self with Je­sus,
And like Him thou shalt be;
Transformed into His im­age,
For all eter­ni­ty.
Accept His of­fered mer­cy,
Come now, His pro­mise claim;
Acquaint thy­self with Je­sus,
And spread abroad His fame.
