What a Friend (Everything) - Brian Doerksen

What a friend we have in Jesus

All our sins and grief 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

Have we trials and temptations?

Is there trouble anywhere?

When we feel down and 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

Everything, every care

Carried to God in prayer

Everything, every care

Carried to God 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 your friends despise forsake you

Take it to the Lord in prayer

In His arms He’ll take and shield you

You will find a solace… there

Carried to God in prayer

Everything, every care

Carried to God in prayer

Everything, every care

Carried to God in prayer

Everything, every care

Carried to God in prayer
