What A Friend We Have In Jesus
by Mary Kay Henderson, Brad Henderson

Album: Songs For Grandmother

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
Oh what a peace we often forfeit, oh what needless pain we bear
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer

Chorus 1
Blessed Savior, You have promised, You will all our burdens bear
May we ev- er Lord be bringing
All to You, in earnest prayer

Verse 2
Have we trials and temptations, is there trouble anywhere
We should never be discouraged, take it to the Lord in prayer
Can we find a friend so faithful, who will all our sorrows share
Jesus knows your every weakness, take it to the Lord in prayer

Chorus 2
Blessed Savior, You have promised, You will all our burdens bear
May we ev- er Lord be bringing
All to You, in earnest prayer

Verse 3
Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care
Precious Savior still our refuge, take it to the Lord in prayer
Do your friends despise forsake you, take it to the Lord in prayer
In his arms He'll take and shield you, You will find a solace there

Chorus 3
Blessed Savior, You have promised, You will all our burdens bear
May we ev- er Lord be bringing
All to You, in earnest prayer

Chorus 4
Blessed Savior, You have promised, You will all our burdens bear
May we ev- er Lord be bringing
All to You In earnest prayer

Verse 4
Soon in glory bright and cloudless, there will be no need for prayer
Shouts of praise and endless worship, You will be my portion there
