LET US PRAY
In early morning' s quiet hour,
When nature yet is sleeping,
O let me pray,
Dear Lord,
to Thee For all within Thy keeping.
To pray for those with care pressed down,
Their sorrows to be lightened,
The sun may shine for them today,
Their weary way be brightened.
To pray for all Thy children dear,
That guidance may be given,
That they who pave them in their care May point the way to heaven.
To pray for those whose aged feet The path of life has wearied,
That blessed rest and sweet repose Be theirs when heaven nearing.
To pray for those who toil so hard,
And those who hungry be,
Give to them strength,
give to them bread,
Then let them learn of Thee.
To pray that I may pray the prayer Of Christ,
Thine own dear Son,
Whatever Thou wouldst have me do,
Dear Lord,
THY WILL BE DONE. back to top |
