What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
Are you weak and heavy-laden
Worried with a load of care
Precious Savior, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord 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
What a friend we have in Jesus
Do you have trials and temptations
Is there trouble anywhere
Oh, don't ever be discouraged
Just 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
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
Take it all to Him in prayer
