What a Friend we have in Jesus

English789

What a Friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O 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 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.

Are we weak and heavy-laden,
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge—
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
In His arms He'll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

I was praying this morning and Holy Spirit let me to this song what a friend we have in Jesus and I believe or what I’m going through has gone when I sang this song. Amen

Always connected this hymn with friendship with God but realised the other day that it’s far more than that . Six times it reminds us that whatever situation/ circumstances we find ourselves in we should always take it to the Lord in prayer ( what an amazing comfort to know)

This song came to my mind a couple weeks ago and I need to be reminded of my glorious friend being with me each and everyday! Praise the Lord our Father!

Hello brothers and sisters! ❤️

I woke this morning with this hymn swirling around in my head. "Take it to the Lord in prayer". As I was looking up the words to the song, I came across this page. After a long time of feeling so discouraged with the state of the world, I was so encouraged to see so many people from all over the world who have commented on this hymn. Thank you for reminding me you are out there!

Jesus is indeed the only friend we'll ever need.

Shalom y'all!
