What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and grieves 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
If there's trouble anywhere
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Aye! we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer
