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. |

This also really touched me:
We should never be discouraged,
Take it to the Lord in prayer.

My grandmother and I use to sing this song every night when I was a child. I keep remembering this song.

My wife left several months ago. Without Jesus I wouldn't have made it this far and I know I couldn't make it any more without Him. The third verse really spoke to me, dealing with the sadness and loneliness.

I remember this song from childhood. It is so relevant to me now. God is so good in all things. I am so thankful for Jesus Christ. What a friend He truly is indeed.
