Lyrics

Verse 1

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer

Chorus 1

Oh what peace we often forfeit
Oh what needless pain
We bear
All because
We do not carry
Everything to God in prayer

Verse 2

Have we trials and temptations
Is there trouble
Anywhere
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer

Chorus 2

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

Turnaround

In prayer
Take it to the Lord
In prayer
Take it

Verse 3

Blessed Savior thou hast
Promised
Thou will all our burdens
Bear
May we ever Lord be bringing
All to Thee in earnest prayer

Chorus 3

Soon in glory bright unclouded
There will be no need
For prayer
Rapture praise
And endless worship
Will be
Our sweet portion there

Tag

Will be our sweet portion
There

Tag

Will be our sweet portion there

Refrain

Just take it
To the Lord in prayer
Lord in prayer

Refrain

You hear when we pray
You answer when we call

Refrain

Just take it
To the Lord in prayer
Lord in prayer

Refrain

You hear when we pray
You answer when we call

Outro

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
