Prayer is the breath of God in man
1
Prayer is the breath of God in man,Returning whence it came;Love is the sacred fire within,And prayer the rising flame.
2
It gives the burdened spirit ease,And soothes the troubled breast;Yields comfort to the mourners here,And to the weary rest.
3
The humble suppliant cannot failTo have his wants supplied,Since He for sinners intercedesWho once for sinners died.
