What A Friend We Have In Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus

All our sins and grieves to bear

What a privilege to carry

Everything to God in prayer



Oh, what peace we often forfeit

Oh, 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



Can we find a friend so faithful

Who will all our sorrow share?

Jesus knows our every weakness

So take it to the Lord in prayer



Oh, what peace we often forfeit

Oh, what needless pain we bear

All because we do not carry

Everything to God in prayer
