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. |

When I am in too much distress to say a word and pray, I, like Helen, sing this hymn to the Lord instead, As I meditate on the words and sing over and over, the words start speaking to myself, and suddenly I have that perfect solace from God.

I often find it difficult to pray and instead recite this hymn - it brings me solace when I'm troubled.

This hymn says it all. No problem big or small, relevant or irrelevant in our mind is insignificant to our Lord. Let's take all our situations to the Lord to develop a deep mature fellowship with Him. We can talk with the Lord Jesus about anything isn't that wonderful. Just following the lines in this hymn guides us into a sweet fellowship with the Lord to pour out our heart to Him so that in return we are Filled with Him. Amen
