What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer. 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! Are we weak and heaven-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. Let Us Break Bread TogetherLet us break bread together on our knees; Let us break bread together on our knees; When I fall on my knees, With my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me. Let us drink wine together on our knees; Let us drink wine together on our knees; When I fall on my knees, With my face to the rising sun, O Lord, have mercy on me.
