Prayer Is the Soul's Sincere Desire

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #454 (1941) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Luke 11:1 Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, Unuttered or exprest, The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear, The upward glancing of an eye, When none but God is near. 3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech That infant lips can try; Prayer the sublimest strains that reach The Majesty on high. 4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice Returning from his ways, While angels in their songs rejoice And cry, "Behold, he prays!" 5 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath, The Christian's native air, His watchword at the gates of death-- He enters heaven with pray'r. 6 The saints in prayer appear as one In word and deed and mind, While with the Father and the Son Sweet fellowship they find. 7 Nor prayer is made by man alone-- The Holy Spirit pleads, And Jesus on th'eternal throne For sinners intercedes. 8 O Thou, by whom we come to God, The Life, the Truth, the Way, The path of prayer Thyself hast trod-- Lord, teach us how to pray. Amen. Topics: Prayer Languages: English Tune Title: BURFORD
