Tell it to the Lord

What a Friend we have in Jesus,

  All our sins and griefs to bear!

What a privilege to carry

  Everything to God 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.

Jesus knows our every need

Before the throne He’ll intercede

Lift up all your tears and fear

He will answer and draw near.

He is such a friend

Faithful to the end

Tell it to the Lord And He will hear.

Have we trials and temptations?

  Is there trouble anywhere?

Saint, whenever you're discouraged,

  Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy-laden,

  Cumbered with a load of care?

Precious Savior, still our refuge—

  Take it to the Lord in prayer;

Jesus knows our every need

Before the throne He’ll intercede

Lift up all your tears and fear

He will answer and draw near.

He is such a friend

Faithful to the end

Tell it to the Lord And He will hear.
