What a friend we have in JESUS
What a friend we have in
jesus all our sins and griefs
to bear.What a privilege to carry
ev'rything to God in prayer!
oh what peace we often forfeit,
oh what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
ev'rything to God in prayer.
Have we trials and temptations?
is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged
take it to the lord in lord
in prayer can will all our
sorrows share?
Jesus know our every weakness,
take it to the lord in prayer.
Are we weak and heavy laden cumbered
with a load of care.Precious Saviour
still our refuge take it to the lord
in prayer.I love you Jesus very much!
