Prompt To Prayer

orchidee



Tune: St Hugh

('Lord, teach us how to pray aright')

Psalm 70 v.4-5

********

Lord, if our prayer is weak or short

It not treated as nought

For you will hear, fruit we shall bear

You grant us comfort, care

 

Let all those that seek you rejoice

And praise you with one voice

Let them be glad in you, and such

As love you, declare much

 

Who love your salvation, they say

God, He great, day to day

They extol Him, and serve humbly

His witnesses they be

 

But when I poor, needy, be swift

Lord, my soul do uplift

You my help and my Saviour, pray

I that you not delay
