You know people told me all of my life
True friendship's hard to come by
But I had to find out for myself
Now I've finally come to realize, oh, oh
What a friend we have in Jesus
All of our sins and griefs He'll bare
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
All my strength in never ending loss
Friends with limited warranties, yea-oh
Until You I never knew a lifetime guaranteed
Friend could really be my reality, oh
What a friend we have in Jesus
All of our sins and griefs He'll bare
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
Everything to God in prayer
What a friend we have in Jesus
All of our sins and griefs He'll bare
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
