What a Friend We Have in Jesus Songtext
von Sister Rosetta Tharpe

Oh, what a friend we have in Jesus
Oh, yes, oh, Lord
Our sin and grief to bear, oh Lord
Mmm, what a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
Oh, what peace we often afford
Oh, what needless pain we bear, oh yeah
Don′t you know, oh, because we do not carry
Oh, Lord, well everything to God in prayer
Oh, are we weak and heavily laden Cumbered with a load of care, oh yeah
Oh, precious, precious Savior, still our friend
Oh, our refuge, don't you know you just take
It to the Lord in prayer
Mmm, do our friends despise, forsake, and leave
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Well, well, well, in His arms He′ll take and shield
Oh yes, He'll shield you, oh yes
Thou will find a solace there
