What a Friend we have in Jesus

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!
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 our every weakness,
  Take it to the Lord in prayer.
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 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.

Hello Michael,

I came online to look for this hymn when I saw your comment. The Lord Jesus Christ is Your Healer. Let me invite you to come onboard this platform ( look for 'pastor-segun-obadje' on Mixlr) for prayers. I definitely know there is God's power available to heal you. I consider this a great privilege from God to reach. God bless You

For Michael I will pray for you brother. I have been taking communion often lately, and as I hold the bread I think of how Jesus in His great love for us allowed his body to be crushed, bearing all our sicknesses and the punishment we deserved

Isaiah 53:5

English Standard Version

5

(A)But he was pierced for our transgressions;

he was crushed for our iniquities;

upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace,

(B)and with his wounds we are healed.

Shalom peace brother -

Everyone please pray for me. I've been sick for years, even tho the symptoms are mild, I feel like I am dying gradually and what's painful is I don't even know what's wrong with me

Thank you Jesus. My soul has been lifted. I believed with you by my side I am more than conqueror.
