Song Lyrics
[Verse 1] What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer! [Verse 2] Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness, Take it to the Lord in prayer. [Verse 3] Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Saviour, still our refuge\xe2\x80\x94 Take it to the Lord in prayer; Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer; In His arms He\xe2\x80\x99ll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. [Verse 1] What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear!
