What a Friend we have in Jesus

Aretha Franklin Aretha Franklin

What a friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and grieves to bear.
What a privilege we often carry
everything to God in prayer.

Oh what peace we often forfeit,
oh what needless pain we're to bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.

Chorus:
What a friend we have in Jesus,
and all my sins, sins and grieves to bear.
What a privilege it is to carry
everything to God in prayer,
everything to God in prayer,
ev-, everything (everything, everything, everything)to God in prayer.

Bridge:
(Oh what peace we often forfeit),
(oh what needless pain we're to bear),
all because we, we do not carry
everything to God in prayer,
everything to God in prayer,
ev-, everything (everything,everything,everything)to God in prayer.

(Oh what peace we often forfeit),
(oh what needless pain we're to bear),
all because we, we do not carry
everything to God in prayer,
everything to God in prayer,
ev-, everything(everything,everything,everything) to God in prayer.
Oh...

Everything,
everything to God in prayer

Everything to God in prayer.
