What a Friend We Have in Jesus
Author: Joseph M. Scriven Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,689 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:6-7 Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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.
3 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 your friends despise, forsake you?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield you;
you will find a solace there.

and free us from all ills
of this world in the next.

for thus it was, is now,

Sweet Hour of Prayer
Author: William Walford Appears in 1,289 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:6 Lyrics: 1 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
That calls me from a world of care,
And bids me at my Father's throne,
Make all my wants and wishes known;
In seasons of distress and grief,
My soul has often found relief,
And oft escaped the tempter's snare,
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.
2 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
Thy wings shall my petition bear,
To him, whose truth and faithfulness
Engage the waiting the soul to bless;
And since He bids me seek His face,
Believe His Word, and trust His grace,
I'll cast on Him my every care,
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.
3 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
May I thy consolation share,
Till, from Mount Pisgah's lofty height,
I view my home, and take my flight:
This robe of flesh I'll drop, and rise
To seize the everlasting prize;
And shout, while passing through the air,
Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!

with you began, with you shall end the day.
Guard now the lips from sin, the hearts from shame,
that in this house have called upon your name.

turn all our darkness to your perfect light.
Then, while we sleep, our hope and strength renew,
for dark and light are both alike to you.
4 Grant us your peace throughout our earthly life:
comfort in sorrow, courage in the strife.
Then, when your voice shall make our conflict cease,
call us, O Lord, to your eternal peace.

Author: Joseph M. Scriven; Leandro Garza Mora Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 41 hymnals Scripture: Philippians 4:4-9 First Line: ¡Oh qué amigo nos es Cristo! Lyrics: 1 ¡Oh qué amigo nos es Cristo!
él llevó nuestro dolor;
Él nos manda que llevemos
todo a Dios en oración.
¿Vive el hombre desprovisto
de paz, gozo y santo amor?
Esto es porque no llevamos
todo a Dios en oración.
2 ¿Andes débil y cargado
de cuidados y temor?
A Jesús, refugio eterno,
dile todo en oración.
¿Te desprecian tus amigos?
cuéntaselo en oración;
En sus brazos gozo tierno,
paz tendrá tu corazón.
3 Jesucristo es nuestro Amigo:
de esto prueba nos mostró,
Pues a redimirnos vino;
por nosotros se humanó.
El castigo de su pueblo
en su muerte él sufrió;
Cristo es un Amigo eterno;
sólo en él confío yo.
