[D][C][G][Em][D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]What
a friend we have in [G]Jesus,
[D]All our sins and griefs to [A]bear!
[D]What a privilege to [G]carry[Em]
[D]Everything [A]to God in [D]prayer!
[A]Oh, what peace we often [D]forfeit,
[G]Oh, what [D]needless pain [E]we [A]bear,
[D]All because we do not [G]carry[D][Em]
[D]Everything [A]to God in pra[D]yer!
Have we trials and [G]temptations?[D]
Is there trouble any[A]where?
[D]We should never [G]be[Em]
dis[D]couraged—
Take it [A]to the Lord in [D]prayer.
[A]Can we find a friend so [D]faithful,
[G]Who will [D]all our sorrows [E]share?[A]
[D]Jesus knows our [G]every
[D]wea[Em]kness[D];
Take it to [A]the Lord in [D]prayer.
[G][D][A][D][G][Em][D][A]
[D]
Are we weak and heavy- [G]laden,
[D]Cumbered with a load of [A]care?[D][A]
[D]Precious Savior, still [G]our [Em]refug[D]e—
Take it [A]to the Lord in [D]prayer.
[A]Do thy friends despise, [D]forsake thee?
[G]Take it [D]to the Lord in [E]prayer![A]
[D]In His arms He'll take and
[G]shield [D]the[Em]e,[D]
Thou wilt [A]find a solace [D]there.
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His [C]arm[D]s He'll take
and [G]shield [Em]thee,[D]
Thou wilt find [A]a solace [D]there.
