♫ What A Friend We Have In Jesus (Modern Worship Reimagining)

LYRICS

Lyrics adapted from the traditional public-domain Christian hymn “What A Friend We Have In Jesus.”
Lyrics adapted and arranged for this modern recording.

VERSE 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!

VERSE 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.

VERSE 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 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.

VERSE 4

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.

This channel exists to glorify Jesus Christ—our risen King, who was, is, and is soon to return.

I view AI-assisted music tools as a creative means to bring new expression to timeless faith: bold, unashamed worship rooted in Scripture and truth.

These songs reimagine classic Christian hymns—rich in theology, substance, and grounded in God’s unchanging nature—for a modern generation.

My prayer is that this music helps you redeem the time—whether at the gym, on the road, or during long work hours—while keeping your eyes on Christ. The King is coming soon.

Jesus is Lord.
Christ is King 👑
