What a Friend We Have in Jesus |
The Cluster Pluckers |
|
What a friend we have in Jesus |
All ours sins and griefs to bear |
What a privilege to carry |
Everything to God in prayer |
Oh what peace we often forfeit |
Oh what needless pain we bear |
All because we do not carry |
Everything to God in prayer |
Solo(Guitar) |
|
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 |
Solo(Guitar) |
|
Are we weak and heavy laden |
Cumbered with a load of care |
Precious Saviour 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 |
|
What a friend we have in Jesus |
All ours sins and griefs to bear |
What a privilege to carry |
Everything to God in prayer |
