What a Friend We Have in Jesus |
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! |
Have we trials and temptations? |
Is there trouble anywhere? |
We should never be discouraged, |
Take it to the Lord in prayer. |
Oh, can we find a friend so faithful |
Who will all our sorrows share? |
Oh, Jesus knows our every weakness, |
Take it to the Lord in prayer. |
Are we weak and heavy-laden, |
Covered with a load of care? |
Precious Savior, still our refuge- |
Take it to the Lord in prayer; |
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? |
Take it to the Lord in prayer; |
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, |
Thou wilt find a solace there. |
Blessed Saviour Thou has promised, |
Thou will all our burdens bear. |
May we ever Lord, be brining, |
All to Thee an earnest prayer. |
Soon in glory bride unclouded, |
There will be no need for prayer. |
Praise an endless worship, |
Where we our sweet portion lay. |
