What a friend we have in Jesus all our sins and grieves to bear
What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer
Oh what peace we often forfeit of what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer
Have we trials and temptation is there trouble anywhere
We should never be discouraged take it to the Lord in prayer
Oh what peace we often forfeit
Can we find up friend so faithful who will all our sorrow share
Jesus knows our every weakness take it to the Lord in prayer
