Hear Thou My Pray'r, O Lord
"O Lord, give ear unto my supplications." - Ps 143:1
VERSE 1
Hear Thou my pray'r, O Lord,
And listen to my cry;
Remember now Thy faithful word,
And graciously reply.
VERSE 2
Do not in judgement rise
Thy servant's life to scan,
For righteous in Thy spotless eyes
Is found no living man.
VERSE 3
I stretch my longing hands
Toward Thy holy place,
With soul a thirst, like weary lands,
For Thy refreshing grace.
VERSE 4
Haste Thee, O Lord, I pray
My failing heart to save!
Hide not Thy face; I droop as they
That sink into the grave.
VERSE 5
Thy mercy's early light
My faith desires to see;
O let me walk before Thy sight!
I lift my soul to Thee.
VERSE 6
Let Thy good Spirit lead
My feet in righteous ways:
And for Thy name's sake, Lord, my head
Above my troubles raise.
