O thou that hearest prayer
1
O thou that hearest prayer,Attend our humble cry,And let thy servants shareThy blessing from on high:We plead the promise of thy word;Grant us thy Holy Spirit, Lord.
2
If earthly parents hearTheir children when they cry,If they, with love sincere,Their varied wants supply,Much more wilt thou thy love display,And answer when thy children pray.
3
Our heavenly Father, thou;We children of thy grace;O, let thy Spirit nowDescend and fill the place!So shall we feel the heavenly flame,And all unite to praise thy name.
