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 woke up this morning after reading my daily devotion, this song came to my mind. It had been a long time since I had song it. So I began singing and praising God for being my friend. I had a really bad headache when I got up this morning and felt the need to just sing and praise God through it. Thank You Lord Jesus Christ for being my friend whom I can take everything to Him in prayer. I know He loves me and will never leave or forsake.

Whenever I feel low & feel like I have let the Lord down I sing this beautiful song of praise & know the Lord is with me always & forgives my son's. He knows my weaknesses & still He loves me.

I believe that it is the Lord Jesus who leads me to start singing this hymn this morning. The lyrics are, indeed, wonderful! They have touched my inner being, my precious soul. God is just a prayer away. The importance of prayer can never be ignored or neglected or undermined! I must be girded with prayers always. Thank and praise God for this wonderful hymn!

Just heard this on the radio. The author lost his fiancée weeks before the marriage, mourned 12 years, came out and fell in love again to have his second fiancée die days before the wedding. He sent this poem to his mother who was passing, as he was unable to afford a trip home to see her again. He learned in all his sorrow that God wanted to be there and comfort him. What a friend we have in Jesus!!!
