What a Friend We Have in Jesus

(Intro) DGDA (Verse 1) D G D A What a Friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! D G D A D What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer! A D G D A O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, D G D A D All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer! (Verse 2) D G D A Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? D G D A D We should never be discouraged, take it to the Lord in prayer. A D G D A Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share? D G D A D Jesus know our every weakness, take it to the Lord in prayer. (Verse 3) D G D A Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care? D G D A D Precious Savior, still our refuge, take it to the Lord in prayer. A D G D A Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer. D G D A D In His arms He'll take and shield thee, thou wilt find a solace there.
