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.
|
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.
