462. O Thou Who Hearest Prayer

1 O Thou who hearest prayer,
The God of power and might,
To seek Thy face be all our care
And our supreme delight.

2 O God of grace and love,
Regard us from Thy throne;
Send down to us the Heavenly Dove,
And seal us as Thine Own.

3 We have no other trust
But Thy dear Sacrifice;
Our hope, Thou Holy One and Just,
Thou never wilt despise.

4 Come with Thy saving strength,
With healing virtue come;
And let Thy guiding hand at length
Conduct us safely home.
