Hear Our Prayer

Author: Walter N. Evans Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12847 First Line: Our heav’nly Father! as we bow before Thee Lyrics: 1 Our heav’nly Father! as we bow before Thee, Hear us, Thy children, in our humble prayer; In childlike trust our souls would fain adore Thee, And praise and bless Thee for Thy loving care. Hear our prayer, Oh, hear our prayer! 2 Thou art our Father, Thou so high and holy, And may we venture on Thy name to call; For still Thy voice invites the meek and lowly, Thy heav’nly love does seek and keep us all. Hear our prayer, Oh, hear our prayer! 3 Help us to lay aside all worldly feeling, To give our hearts to goodness, truth, and love; Oh, send Thy Spirit, with its deep revealing, To lift our souls from earth to Heav’n above. Hear our prayer, Oh, hear our prayer! Languages: English Tune Title: [Our heav’nly Father! as we bow before Thee]
