(Verse 1)
[D]What a Friend we have in [G]Jesus, All[D] our sins and griefs to be[A]ar!
[D]What a privilege to [G]carry e[D]verythin[A]g to God in [D]prayer!
[A]O what peace we often [D]forfeit, O[G] what needl[D]ess pain we b[A]ear,
[D]All because we do not [G]carry ev[D]erythin[A]g to God in [D]prayer!
(Verse 2)
[D]Have we trials and temp[G]tations? Is [D]there trouble anyw[A]here?
[D]We should never be [G]discouraged, tak[D]e it to t[A]he Lord in pray[D]er.
[A]Can we find a friend so [D]faithful w[G]ho will all [D]our sorrows sha[A]re?
[D]Jesus know our every [G]weakness, t[D]ake it to [A]the Lord in pr[D]ayer.
(Verse 3)
[D]Are we weak and heavy l[G]aden, cumb[D]ered with a load of ca[A]re?
[D]Precious Savior, still our [G]refuge, tak[D]e it to t[A]he Lord in [D]prayer.
[A]Do thy friends despise, f[D]orsake thee? T[G]ake it to [D]the Lord in pr[A]ayer.
[D]In His arms He'll take and s[G]hield thee, [D]thou wilt fin[A]d a solace th[D]ere.
