WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS (SONG WITH LYRICS) - GREATEST HYMNS OF TIMES

What a Friend We Have in Jesus - Based on the Beloved Hymn by Joseph Scriven | Scripture Song "What a friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer." 🙏 Joseph Scriven wrote this hymn in 1855 as a poem to comfort his mother who was living far away in Ireland while he was in Canada. He never intended it for publication — it was simply a son's tender reminder to his mother that she was never alone, that Jesus was the friend who would never leave her side. This deeply personal origin is what gives this hymn its remarkable intimacy. It doesn't feel like a performance; it feels like a conversation. The message is beautifully simple yet profoundly life-changing: whatever you carry — sin, grief, trials, temptation, weakness, loneliness — you can bring it all to Jesus in prayer. He is the faithful friend who will never despise you, never forsake you, and always shield you in His arms. 📖 SCRIPTURES: • Proverbs 18:24 - "A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother." • Philippians 4:6-7 - "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." • 1 Peter 5:7 - "Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." • Hebrews 4:15-16 - "For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need." • Matthew 11:28 - "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest." • John 15:15 - "Henceforth I call you not servants... but I have called you friends." 🎵 SONG THEME: Friendship of Jesus, power of prayer, casting cares on God, comfort in trials, divine refuge 💭 REFLECTION QUESTIONS: • What burdens are you carrying right now that you haven't fully brought to God in prayer? • How does it change your prayer life to think of Jesus not just as Lord, but as your closest friend? • Is there someone in your life who needs to be reminded today that Jesus is their faithful friend? ✏️ Perfect for: Personal prayer time, morning devotion, comfort during loneliness, grief support, small group worship, hospital and hospice visits, bedtime reflection 📚 Part of our Scripture Songs series - bringing the Word of God to life through music. --- 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for more scripture-based worship songs 👍 LIKE if this blessed you 💬 COMMENT: What is one thing you need to take to the Lord in prayer today? 🔤 SHARE with a friend who needs to know Jesus is their friend too #WhatAFriendWeHaveInJesus #JosephScriven #PrayerHymn #WorshipMusic #ChristianMusic #ScripturaSongs #JesusMyFriend #PowerOfPrayer #PeacefulWorship #BibleSongs #SacredMusic #ComfortHymn --- © Scriptura Songs.
