What a Friend We Have in Jesus

Author: Joseph M. Scriven Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,811 hymnals Topics: Afflictions 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: BEACH SPRING

What more can He say, than to you He hath said, To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled? 2 "Fear not, I am with thee; O be not dismayed! For I am thy God, I will still give thee aid; I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand, Upheld by My gracious, omnipotent hand. 3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go, The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow; For I will be with thee thy trials to bless, And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress. 4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie, My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply; The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine. 5 "E'en down to old age all My people shall prove My sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love; And when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn, Like lambs they shall still in My bosom be borne. 6 "The soul that on Jesus doth lean for repose, I will not--I will not desert to his foes; That soul, though all hell should endeavour to shake, I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake!"

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 185 hymnals Topics: Afflictions First Line: Oh, for that tenderness of heart Lyrics: 1 Oh, for that tenderness of heart, That bows before the Lord; That owns how just and good thou art, And trembles at thy word. 2 Oh, for those humble, contrite tears, Which from repentance flow; That sense of guilt which, trembling, fears The long-suspended blow! 3 Saviour! to me, in pity give, For sin, the deep distress; The pledge thou wilt, at last, receive, And bid me die in peace. 4 Oh, fill my soul with faith and love, And strength to do thy will; Raise my desires and hopes above,-- Thyself to me reveal.
