β What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O 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?
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, cumbersome with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge; take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do they friends despise thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In His arms Heβll take and shield thee; thou wilt find a solace there.β πΆππΌ -Joseph M. Scriven-
