capo 1
Verse 1:
[C]What a friend we have in [F]Jesus,
[C]All our sins and griefs to [G]bear!
[C]What a privilege to [F]carry
[C] [G]Everything to God in [C]prayer
[Dm]Oh, what peace we often [C]forfeit,
[F]Oh, what [C]needless pain we [G]bear
[C]all because we do not [F]carry
[C] [G]everything to God in [C]prayer.
Verse 2:
[C]Have we trials and [F]temptations?
[C]Is there trouble [G]anywhere?
[C]We should never be [F]discouraged,
[C]Take it [G]to the Lord in [C]prayer.
[Dm]Can we find a friend so [C]faithful?
[F]Who will [C]all our sorrows [G]share?
[C]Jesus knows our every [F]weakness,
[C]Take it [G]to the Lord in [C]prayer.
Verse 3:
[C]Are we weak and heavy [F]laden,
[C]Cumbered with a load of [G]care?
[C]Precious Savior, still our [F]refuge
[C]Take it [G]to the Lord in [C]prayer.
[Dm]Do thy friends despise [C]forsake thee?
[F]Take it [C]to the Lord in [G]prayer.
[C]In His arms He'll take and [F]shield thee,
[C]Thou wilt [G]find a solace [C]there.
Verse 4:
[C]Blessed Savior, Thou hast [F]promised
[C]Thou wilt all our burdens [G]bear;
[C]May we ever, Lord, be [F]bringing
[C]All to [G]Thee in earnest [C]prayer.
[Dm]Soon in glory bright, [C]unclouded,
[F]There will [C]be no need for [G]prayer—
[C]Rapture, praise, and endless [F]worship
[C]Will be [G]our sweet portion [C]there.
