You know people told me all of my life
True friendship's hard to come by
But I had to find out for myself
Now I've finally come to realize, oh, oh
[Chorus 1:]
What a friend we have in Jesus
All of our sins and griefs He'll bare
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
[Chorus 2:]
Everything to God in prayer
All my strength in never ending loss
Friends with limited warranties, yea-oh
Until You I never knew a lifetime guaranteed
Friend could really be my reality, oh
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2: x5]
[Chorus 1: Repeats]
True friendship's hard to come by
But I had to find out for myself
Now I've finally come to realize, oh, oh
[Chorus 1:]
What a friend we have in Jesus
All of our sins and griefs He'll bare
What a privilege to carry
Everything to God in prayer
[Chorus 2:]
Everything to God in prayer
All my strength in never ending loss
Friends with limited warranties, yea-oh
Until You I never knew a lifetime guaranteed
Friend could really be my reality, oh
[Chorus 1]
[Chorus 2: x5]
[Chorus 1: Repeats]
