What a Friend We Have in Jesus

Author: Joseph Scriven, 1820-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,778 hymnals Topics: Elements of Worship Offering Our Prayers 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! Oh, what peace we often forfeit; oh, 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 your friends despise, forsake you? Take it to the Lord in prayer. In his arms he'll take and shield you; you will find a solace there. Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 Used With Tune: CONVERSE/ERIE

O Jesus, Thou art standing

Author: William W. How Appears in 680 hymnals Topics: Salvation Offered to All Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Thou art standing Outside the fast-closed door, In lowly patience waiting To pass the threshold o'er: We hear the name of Christians, His name and sign we bear: Oh, shame, thrice shame upon us! To keep Him standing there. 2 O Jesus, Thou art knocking; And lo! that hand is scarred, And thorns Thy brow encircle, And tears Thy face have marred: Oh, love that passeth knowledge, So patiently to wait! Oh, sin that hath no equal, So fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, Thou art pleading In accents meek and low,-- "I died for you, my children, And will ye treat me so?" O Lord, with shame and sorrow We open now the door; Dear Saviour, enter, enter, And leave us nevermore! Amen. Used With Tune: ST. HILDA
