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 know He Cares for me I'm all way, Jesus is my Lord, no remedy than to take everything to Him in prayer.
Continue to pray for me to stand to the end in Jesus.

Thank you so much. This song holds me when I'm going to lose myself, just to know that Jesus is really my friend.
Take it to the LORD in prayer
Beautiful song

I fall in love with this song the moment I heard it for the first time. I used to struggle a lot mentally because I felt as if it there was no one that I could see me.
Now through this song I have fond out that no matter what there is always going to be that one friend that well always see you and understand you, and that name is no other name but Jesus
Hallelujah!

I thank the Lord for this song
Alot has been on my mind but I think I've poured it all at the master's feet and I know he has done it all for me
He has taken me into His arms and has given me a second chance to serve him better
Thank You Lord

On this day and hour I don't have a human friend. It was through this song God reminded me that Jesus is my friend and the Holy Spirit is my comforter. Amen.
