What a friend we have in Jesus, 
A                          E
all our sins and griefs to bear! 
A                   D
What a privilege to carry 
A    E               A
everything to God in prayer! 

E                     A
O what peace we often forfeit,
D      A                E
O what needless pain we bear, 
A                     D
all because we do not carry 
A    E               A
everything to God in prayer!

Is there trouble anywhere? 
A                     D
We should never be discouraged; 
A       E              A
take it to the Lord in prayer.

Can we find a friend so faithful

take it to the Lord in prayer.
