The Cyber Hymnal ‎#10287

10287. Hear My Prayer

1 O heav’nly Father, hear my prayer,
Offered in faith to Thee;
In every trial that I bear,
Wilt Thou my refuge be?

Refrain:
Teach me to know and do Thy will,
And Thy commands obey;
Help me my duty to fulfill,
And trust Thee day by day.

2 Reclaim me when I go astray,
My sins and faults forgive;
And help me to Thy cause each day
Some humble service give. [Refrain]

3 Give me not wealth nor poverty,
Thy love to me impart;
This grant, whate’er my lot may be,
A wise, contented heart. [Refrain]
