(\'Lord, teach us how to pray aright\')
2 Chronicles 15 v.1-7 parts
**********
The Spirit of God came upon
Azariah (a prophet), he one
Who spoke to King Asa of old
A message he him told
Said, Hear me Asa, Judah all
Unto you be this call
The Lord is with you while you be
With Him, so shall you see
And if you seek Him, He will be
Then found of you freely
But if you forsake Him He will
Forsake you, this true still
Now Israel for a long time
They had no word or sign
Had been without the true god for
None did teach them His law
But when they in their troubles turned
To Him they of Him learned
And when they sought Him He was found
Of them, firm was their ground
Be strong therefore, let not hands be
Weak, act courageously
For your work shall be rewarded
Shall be, prophecy [is] said
