Hear us, O Father

Author: Mrs. R. N. Turner Hymnal: On Joyful Wing #3 (1886) First Line: Before thee, O Father, our souls would draw near Refrain First Line: Hear us, O Father, Almighty and true Lyrics: 1 Before thee, O Father, our souls would draw near, In fervent and suppliant prayer; O bend from the throne of thy mercy and hear The earnest petitions we bear. Refrain: Hear us, O Father, Almighty and true, Throned in thy infinite love; Waken our souls to devotion anew, Hear our petitions above. 2 How sweet to approach with our burden of sin, And feel it roll lightly away! How sweet to be filled with thy presence within, While low at thy footstool we stay. [Refrain] 3 We drink from the fountain unfathomed and clear, That flows from the heart of our King; And reaching us, kneeling in suppliance here, Its sweetest refreshment doth bring. [Refrain] 4 Oh, bliss without measure! the light of the throne By faith we can joyfully see; In glad consecration thy glory we own, And yield our devotion to thee. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Before thee, O Father, our souls would draw near]
