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.

It reminds us constantly that we need not worry about our troubles since we have a God who is able to take way all our burdens and set us free. Even when we have trials and temptations, once we call upon the Lord He will save us. 10 years ago, I lost my dear dad due to stroke. 3 weeks after his burial, my mother who had never been to hospital even once went down with stroke--she lost her speech. I cried to the Lord to preserve her even though she can't speak to me. For all this time God has sustained her on that wheel chair but am thankful to God because He has proved to me that He is able to keep. Praise Be to God!

One of my most favorite songs. It gives me such comfort. All the words are so true. He does know our every weakness. I am so blessed that I can take it all to the Lord in prayer. Praise God for His goodness.

I like this song all because there is no friend or brother closer to me like Jesus. It also empowers me when I am lonely and down.

This is a simple song with some simple chords. But this is simply make my tears down while I sing this out. When I couldn't pray, I just sing out this song and I feel much better.
