What a Friend We Have in Jesus

[Verse 1] (Bill Mullins)
What a friend we have in Jesus
All our 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

[Verse 2] (Nate Mullins)
Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
Jesus, Savior, is our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer
Are we weak and heavy laden
Cumbered with a load of care?
Jesus knows our every weakness
Take it to the Lord in prayer

[Chorus]
Oh, what a friend
Oh, what a friend in Jesus
Oh, what a friend
Oh, what a friend in Jesus

[Verse 3] (Matty Mullins)
Blessed Savior, You have promised
All our burdens You will bear
May we ever, Lord, be bringing
All to you in earnest prayer
Soon, in glory bright unclouded
Face to face will be our prayer
Joyful praise and endless worship
Will be our sweet portion there

[Chorus]
Oh, what a friend
Oh, what a friend in Jesus
Oh, what a friend
Oh, what a friend in Jesus

[Outro]
Oh, what a friend (What a friend we have in Jesus)
Oh, what a friend in Jesus (We have in Jesus)
Oh, what a friend (What a friend, what a friend in Jesus)
Oh, what a friend in Jesus
Oh, what a friend (What a friend we have in Jesus)
Oh, what a friend in Jesus (We have in Jesus)
Oh, what a friend (Oh, what a friend in Jesus)
Oh, what a friend in Jesus
