1 Lord, teach us how to pray, And give us hearts to ask; Or all we think, or do, or say, Will be a tiresome task.
2 Thy Holy Spirit send, Our bosoms to inspire; Then shall our praise to thee ascend With pure and warm desire.
3 Jesus, our great High Priest, Present our prayers above; And spread abroad o'er all thou seest The mantle of thy love.
4 Teach us to find our bliss In earnest, fervent prayer, For where we pray our Saviour is, And bliss is only there.Source: Living Hymns: for use in the Sabbath School, Christian Endeavor Meetings, the church & home #333
