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
Of what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptation
Is there trouble anywhere
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Oh, what peace we often forfeit
Of what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.
Can we find up friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrow share
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer...
