The Blessing of Song

Hymnal: CD21896 #135 (1896) Scripture: Psalm 55:22 First Line: "What a friend we have in Jesus" Lyrics: 1 “What a Friend we have in Jesus,” Sang a little child one day; And a weary woman listened To the darling’s happy lay; All her life seemed dark and gloomy, And her heart was sad with care, Sweetly rang our baby’s treble, “Take it to the Lord in prayer.” 2 “Are we weak and heavy laden,” He will carry ev’ry woe, And the one who sadly listened, Needed that dear helper so; Sin and grief are heavy burdens, For a fainting soul to bear, But the baby singing bade her “Take it all to Him in prayer.” 3 “Jesus knows our ev’ry weakness,” Weak and worn she turned to God, Asking Christ to take her burden, As He is the sinner’s Lord; Jesus was the only refuge, He could take her sin and care, And He blessed the weary woman, “When she came to Him in prayer.” 4 And the happy child still singing, Little knew she had a part, In God’s wondrous work in bringing, Peace unto the troubled heart; So may we who love the Saviour, Say to those bowed down with care, That the Saviour is their refuge, They will find a solace there.
