What A Friend We Have In Jesus

What a Friend we have in Jesus, 
all our sins and grief's 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.
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.
