What a Friend

Author: Joseph Scriven Hymnal: Tabernacle Hymns #139 First Line: What a Friend we have in Jesus Lyrics: 1 What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Ev'rything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Ev'rything 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 ev'ry 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.
