1
\nWhat a friend we have in Jesus,
\nAll our sins and griefs to bear!
\nWhat a privilege to carry
\nEverything to God in prayer!
\nOh, what peace we often forfeit;
\nOh, what needless pain we bear
\nAll because we do not carry
\nEverything to God in prayer!<\/p>\n

2
\nHave we trials and temptations?
\nIs there trouble anywhere?
\nWe should never be discouraged
\nTake it to the Lord in prayer.
\nCan we find a friend so faithful
\nWho will all our sorrows share?
\nJesus knows our every weakness
\nTake it to the Lord in prayer.<\/p>\n

3
\nAre we weak and heavy laden,
\nCumbered with a load of care?
\nPrecious Savior, still our refuge
\nTake it to the Lord in prayer.
\nDo your friends despise, forsake you?
\nTake it to the Lord in prayer.
\nIn his arms he\u2019ll take and shield you;
\nYou will find a solace there.<\/p>\n
