Lyrics for Song: What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Lyrics for Album: Precious Memories [Arista Records] [2006]
What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and greifs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in pray'r.
O what peace we often forfeit
O what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in pray'r.
Have we trials and temptations
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discourag'd
Take it to the Lord in pray'r.
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our ev'ry weakness
Take it to the Lord in pray'r.
Are we weak and heavy laden
Cumber'd with a load of care?
Precious Saviour, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in pray'r.
Do your friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in pray'r
In His arms He'll take and sheild thee
Thou wilt find a solace there...
