	What A Friend We Have In Jesus Written by: Joseph Scriven 1820-1886
	What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and grief’s to bear. What a privilege to carry, everything to God in prayer. O what joy we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bare. All because cause 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. Back to March
