What a friend we have in Jesus

All our sins and griefs to bear

What a privilege to carry

Everything to god 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

Have we trials and temptations

Is there trouble anywhere

We should never never 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 every weakness

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

Everything everything to god in prayer

All because we don't carry

Everything everything to god in prayer
