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.
During devotion this morning, this song just pop out of my head. Looking at the words now it just what I need at this moment. These words appear so alive now than ever. Thank Jesus for the friends You are. This makes me feel also sad for those who don't know Him. The world can be a cruel place but Jesus is the shield we all need to carry on. Amen.
Thank You Jesus that we can take all our burdens to You and You can bear them all in Jesus Name Amen. Oh Lord pour upon us spirit of prayer and supplication in Jesus Name Amen. Thanks for uploading this song and God bless you all. Shalom!!!
What an encouragement this was to me. I am going through a difficult time right now, and this was laid on my heart last night as I was going to bed. I woke up this morning with it in mind and was glad to be able to sing along to start my day!
This song I grew up with...listening to my Grandmother play it on the piano and hearing the lyrics in Church was extremely comforting...I want my family and grandchildren to know and love this beautiful song...and plant it in there hearts. I always have tears when I hear it, because what Christ has done for us.
