What A Friend We Have In Jesus

I just attended a funeral today...I guess its been a long time since I did.During this time people would try to recollect memories with the person who passed on.And try their best to remember those times.We say good things and appreciate the live of the loved one.We will mourn for their passing and they would be rejoicing with the Lord.Death does not see age or gender,when our time is up...its up...So,cherish every moment we have with the ones dearest to us.
At the service,they sang this song..and I realized how meaningful the words are...its a nice 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,
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 any where?
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 heavy laden?
Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Saviour 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 sheild thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.
