Lyrics What a Friend We Have in Jesus - Selah

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer

Are you weak and heavy-laden
Worried with a load of care?
Precious Savior still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Oh, what peace we often forfeit
Oh, what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer

(What a friend)
What a friend
We have in Jesus

Do you have trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
Oh, don't ever be discouraged, just
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Can we find a friend so faithful
Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus, He knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer

What a friend
We have in Jesus
What a friend (what a friend)
We have in Jesus
What a friend (what a friend)
We have in Jesus

Oh-oh, oh, yeah
Oh-oh, oh, yeah
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
What a friend we have in Jesus
Take it all to Him in prayer
Ooh, yeah
