What a Friend we have in Jesus,
All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O 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.
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.

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 thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
In His arms He'll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

I awoke in the middle of the night a couple of nights ago with many worries on my mind. Immediately the Lord dropped this song into my spirit. I hadn’t heard it in years. I prayed and gave Him all my cares and concerns. Then I fell into a deep peaceful sleep. I’ve been singing it ever since. He’s so good and kind.

This song reminds me that Jesus cares for my need and that I must take my worries to Him. He cares for my marriage much more than I do
