What A Friend We Have In Jesus chords by Songs Of Praise

Chords with lyrics

G+G
What a friend we have in Jesus,
A augmentedA
All ours sins and griefs to bear,
G+G
What a privilege to carry
D MajorD
Everything to God in prayer!
D MajorD
O what peace we often forfeit,
A augmentedA
O what needless pain we bear,
G+G
All because we do not carry
D MajorD
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 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.
