Stonewall Jackson - What a Friend We Have in Jesus lyrics

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 ev'rywhere 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 ev'ry weakness Take it to the Lord in prayer
