What A Friend We Have In Jesus

Charles Crozat Converse

F

Intro

All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer

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 need-less pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer

Verse 2

Have we trials and temp-tations
Is there trouble any-where
We should never be dis-couraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sor-rows 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 de-spise for-sake thee
Take it to the Lord in prayer
In His arms He'll take and shield thee
Thou wilt find a solace there
Ending w/ Retard
Thou wilt find a solace there /
