The Excelsior Hymnal ‎#97

97. Teach Us How to Pray

1 Lord, we come to seek Thy face,
Teach us how to pray;
Now reveal Thy love and grace,
Bless each life today.

Refrain:
Lord, we seek Thy face,
Show Thy love and grace;
Bless each waiting soul today,
Teach us how to pray.

2 Lord, in faith our hearts would plead,
Shield from ev’ry ill;
Help and strength from Thee we need,
We would do Thy will. [Refrain]

3 Give the peace for which we seek,
Calm each troubled heart;
Grant the pray’r our lips would speak,
Hope to us impart. [Refrain]
