What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Author: Joseph M. Scriven Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,711 hymnals Topics: Fellowship with Christ Lyrics: 1 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!
2 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.
3 Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our Refuge -
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
In His arms He'll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there. Used With Tune: CONVERSE

Here would I touch and handle things unseen;
Here grasp with firmer hand eternal grace,
And all my weariness upon Thee lean.

Here drink with Thee the royal wine of heaven;
Here would I lay aside each earthly load,
Here taste afresh the calm of sin forgiv'n.
3 I have no help but Thine, nor do I need
Another arm save Thine to lean upon;
It is enough, my Lord, enough indeed -
My strength is in Thy might, Thy might alone.

Mine is the guilt, but Thine the cleansing blood;
Here is my robe, my refuge, and my peace -
Thy blood, Thy righteousness, O Lord, my God.

With sweetness fills my breast;
But sweeter far Thy face to see
And in Thy presence rest.
2 No voice can sing, no heart can frame,
Nor can the memory find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest name,
O Savior of mankind.
3 O hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
To those who fall, how kind Thou art!
How good to those who seek!
4 But what to those who find? Ah, this
Nor tongue nor pen can show;
The love of Jesus, what it is
None but His loved ones know.
5 Jesus, our only joy be Thou,
As Thou our prize wilt be;
Jesus, be Thou our glory now
And through eternity.

To be happy in Jesus,

the delights of His love
Until all on the altar we lay;
For the favor He shows,
and the joy He bestows
Are for them who will trust and obey. [Refrain]

we will sit at His feet,
Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
What He says we will do,
where He sends we will go -
Never fear, only trust and obey. [Refrain] Used With Tune: TRUST AND OBEY
