Lyrics
"What A Friend" by Hlengiwe Mhlaba.
Verse 1
What a friend we have in Jesus
He is us
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
Verse 2
What a friend we have in Jesus
He is us
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
Chorus
Oh, what peace we often forfeit
Oh, what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
Verse 3
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never, ever, ever, ever be discouraged
So take it to the Lord in prayer
Chorus
Can we find a friend so faithful?
Who will love all our sorrows?
Sorrows share, sorrows share
Jesus knows, Jesus knows our every weakness
He knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Take everything to the Lord
Take everything, He knows your weakness
He knows everything
He knows what's happening
Take it to the Lord
Take it to the Lord in prayer
In prayer, in prayer
Take it to the Lord
Take it to the Lord
Take it, take it
Take it, take it to the Lord
Take it, take it to the Lord
To the Lord, to the Lord
Take it to the Lord in prayer
