1.What a friend we have in Jesus,All our sins and griefs to bear!What a privilege to carryEverything to God in prayer!Oh, what peace we often forfeit;Oh, what needless pain we bearAll because we do not carryEverything to God in prayer!2.Have we trials and temptations?Is there trouble anywhere?We should never be discouragedTake it to the Lord in prayer.Can we find a friend so faithfulWho will all our sorrows share?Jesus knows our every weaknessTake it to the Lord in prayer.3.Are we weak and heavy laden,Cumbered with a load of care?Precious Savior, still our refugeTake it to the Lord in prayer.Do your friends despise, forsake you?Take it to the Lord in prayer.In his arms he’ll take and shield you;You will find a solace there.
