E1:What a Friend we have in Je_sus,/all our sins and griefs to bear!/What a pri_vi_lege to car_ry/ev_ery_thing to God in prayer!/O what peace we oft_en for_feit,/O what need_less pain we bear,/All be_cause we do not car_ry/ev_ery_thing to God in prayer.
E2:Have we tri_als and temp_ta_tions?/Is there trou_ble a_ny_where?/We should nev_er be dis_cou_raged;/take it to the Lord in prayer./Can we find a friend so faith_ful/who will all our sor_rows share?/Je_sus knows our ev_ery weak_ness;/take it to the Lord in prayer.
E3:Are we weak and hea_vy la_den,/cum_bered with a load of care?/Pre_cious Sa_vior, still our re_fuge,/take it to the Lord in prayer./Do your friends des_pise, for_sake you?/Take it to the Lord in prayer!/In His arms He'll take and shield you;/you will find a so_lace there.
E4:Bless_ed Sa_vior, Thou hast pro_mised/Thou wilt all our bur_dens bear/May we ev_er, Lord, be bring_ing/all to Thee in earn_est prayer./Soon in glo_ry bright un_cloud_ed/there will be no need for prayer/Rap_ture, praise and end_less wor_ship/will be our sweet por_tion there./
