Lyrics

Do sore tribulations perplex you?
Is your life filled with sorrow and care?
No longer your trials will vex you,
If you take it to Jesus in prayer.

Tho' often of life you are weary,
You need never give way to despair.
You always will find life more cheery
When you take it to Jesus in prayer.

The Saviour is able and willing
All your trials and sorrows to share;
with comfort your heart will be filling,
When you take it to Jesus in prayer.

Then do not give way to your sorrow,
Tho' it seems most too heavy to bear;
The world will seem brighter tomorrow,
If you take it to Jesus in prayer.

Chorus:
Then take it to Jesus in prayer, sweet prayer,
Tell all your sorrows, your troubles, your care;
There at His feet is a solace so sweet,
Then take it to Jesus in prayer.
