What a Friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!

何とイエスは我らが友となり
我らすべての罪と悲しみを背負う
何たる恩恵か　祈りですべてを神に捧げん

O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.

何と平静さを失うことか
何と不要な痛みを抱くか
耐えきれないものだから
祈りですべてを神に捧げん

Have we trials and temptations?
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.

試練や誘惑　問題は至るところに
落胆してはならない
祈りで神に委ねるのだ

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

これほど誠実な友があろうか？
我らすべての悲しみを分かち給う
神は我らの弱きを知る
祈りで神に委ねるのだ
