What a Friend We Have in Jesus |
| What a friend we have in Jesus, |
| All our sins and griefs to bear! |
| What a privilage to carry |
| Ev’rything to God in prayer! |
| Oh, what peace we often forfeit, |
| Oh, what needless pain we bear, |
| All because we do not carry |
| Ev’rything to God in prayer! |
| 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. |
| Are we weak and heavy laden, |
| Cumbered with a load of care? |
| Precious Saviour, still our refuge; |
| Take it to the Lord in prayer: |
| Do the friends despise, forsake thee? |
| Take it to the Lord in prayer; |
| In His arms He’ll take and shield thee; |
| And you will find a solace there. |
| And you will find a solace there… |
