What a Friend We Have in Jesus Songtext
von Chelsea Moon & The Franz Brothers

May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to thee in earnest prayer
What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear
What a privilege 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
Have we trials and temptations
Is there trouble anywhere
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
(All to thee in earnest 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
(All to thee in earnest prayer)
Are we weak and heavy-laden?
Comfort with a load of care
Precious savior still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to thee in earnest prayer
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to thee in earnest prayer
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to thee in earnest prayer
