What is prayer?

Prayer is an offering up of my desires to God for things agreeable to his will, in the name of Christ, with confession of my sins and thankfulness for his mercies.

(Gen 17:22; 18:33; Neh 1:4–11; 2:4; Matt 6:6; Rom 8:26, 27)

 


Memory Verse

Psalm 62:8

Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your heart before him;
God is a refuge for us.

VERSE 1

What a Friend we have in Jesus,

All our sins and griefs to bear;

What a privilege to carry

Ev’rything to God in prayer.

O what peace we often forfeit,

O what needless pain we bear,

All because we do not carry

Ev’rything 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 ev’ry 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.
