teresaq Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Last night was another one of those times when I found myself talking to God honestly about my feelings and thoughts over events. The peace and happiness that resulted brought this hymn to mind so I thought I would share it. If any haven't tried talking to God honestly, or forget, please do try it. It makes so much difference. Luke 6:12 And it came to pass in those days, that (Jesus) went out into a mountain to pray , and continued all night in prayer to God. What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer! Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged— Take it to the Lord 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. Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge— Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised Thou wilt all our burdens bear; May we ever, Lord, be bringing All to Thee in earnest prayer. Soon in glory bright, unclouded, There will be no need for prayer— Rapture, praise, and endless worship Will be our sweet portion there.
