What a Friend Lyrics by Dee Wilson

Black & White Hymnal

2017

[Verse 1: Dee Wilson]
What a Friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and grieves to bear
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer, oh
[Verse 2: Jenn Wilson]
Have we trials and temptations
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged
Take it to the Lord in prayer
[Chorus: Dee Wilson, Dee Wilson & Jenn Wilson]
Jesus, our confidence
Jesus, our faithful Friend
Jesus, our ever-present help in trouble
He calls us by our name
He looks us in the face
He welcomes us as friends before the Father
[Chorus: Dee Wilson, Jenn Wilson]
And are we weak and heavy-laden
Cumbered with the load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge
Take it to the Lord in prayer (Take it to the Lord in prayer, oh)
[Chorus: Dee Wilson & Jenn Wilson]
Jesus, our confidence
Jesus, our faithful Friend
Jesus, our ever-present help in trouble
He calls us by our name
He looks us in the face
He welcomes us as friends before the Father, oh
[Spontaneous: Dee Wilson & Jenn Wilson]
Oh-whoa
Oh, oh
You are, You are faithful friend, yeah
What a friend we have in Jesus
You are
We release to carry, carry everything in prayer (In prayer)
[Chorus: Dee Wilson & Jenn Wilson, Dee Wilson, Jenn Wilson]
Jesus, our confidence
Jesus, our faithful Friend
Jesus, our ever-present help in trouble
He calls us by our name
He looks us in the face
He welcomes us as friends before the Father
He calls us by our name
He looks us in the face
He welcomes us as friends before the Father
Jesus, our confidence
Oh Jesus, our faithful Friend
Ooh Jesus, our ever-present help in trouble (With every time in trouble)
He calls us by our name
He looks us in the face
He welcomes us as friends before, before the Father
