What a friend we have in Jesus all our sins and griefs to bear 
What a privilege it is to carry everything to 
God in prayer 
Oh what peace we often forfeit 
Oh what needless pain we bear 
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer 
Are we weak and heavy laden come be with the 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
