What a Friend We Have in Jesus Songtext
von Aretha Franklin

What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear (ooh)
What a privilege it is to carry
Everything (everything, everything, everything)
Everything to God in prayer

Let′s do that one more time
What a friend we have in Jesus
All our sins and griefs to bear (ooh) oh, yeah
What a privilege to carry
Everything (everything, everything, everything)
Everything to God in prayer

Oh what peace we often forfeit
Oh what needless pain we bear, oh yes we do
And it is all- (all because)
Just because we don't, we just don′t carry
Everything (everything, everything, everything)
Everything to God in prayer, oh yea


Mmm oh, oh what peace we often- we often forfeit
Oh what needless, needless pain we bear, yes we do
All (all because)
It's all because we- we just don't carry
Everything (everything, everything, everything oh)

Everything (everything, everything, everything oh)
Every, every, everything (everything, everything, everything oh)
Oh everything to Jesus
We need to take it to Jesus (everything, everything, everything oh) everything
We don′t carry our problems to Jesus (everything, everything, everything oh) oh yes
Everything, every- every, everything
Every, everything (everything to God) to God in prayer

Mmm (oh what needless pain we bear, ooh, oh-oh)
Mmm (all because)
It′s all because we just don't carry, no we don′t
We don't carry everything (everything, everything, oh everything)
Every, everything, everything to Jesus (ooh) everything to the Lord
(Oh, everything, everything, everything oh)
Every, everything (oh everything, everything, everything oh)
Everything, oh, to the Lord yeah
