What A Friend We Have In Jesus
|
What a friend we have is Jesus. All our sins and griefs 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 sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness, take it to the Lord in prayer
Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior still our refuge, take 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.
Text : Joseph Scriven 1820-1886
Tune : Charles Crozat Converse 1832-1918
