What a Friend We Have in Jesus (Charles Crozat Converse | Joseph Medlicott Scriven)

Verse 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 Verse 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 Verse 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 Verse 4 Blessed Savior Thou hast promised Thou wilt all our burdens bear May we ever Lord be bringing All to Thee in earnest prayer Soon in glory bright unclouded There will be no need for prayer Rapture praise and endless worship Will be our sweet portion there CCLI Song # 27714 Charles Crozat Converse | Joseph Medlicott Scriven © Words: Public Domain Music: Public Domain For use solely with the SongSelect® Terms of Use.
