What a Friend We Have In Jesus lyrics

What a friend we have in Jesus 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.
