To God My Earnest Voice I Raise

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession Lyrics: 1 To God my earnest voice I raise, To God my voice imploring prays; Before His face my grief I show And tell my trouble and my woe. 2 When gloom and sorrow compass me, The path I take is known to Thee, And all the toils that foes do lay To snare Thy servant in his way. 3 O Lord, my Savior, now to Thee, Without a hope besides, I flee, To Thee, my shelter from the strife, My portion in the land of life. 4 Be Thou my help when troubles throng, For I am weak and foes are strong; My captive soul from prison bring, And thankful praises I will sing. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 142 Used With Tune: ROCKINGHAM OLD Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912

Prayer Is Appointed to Convey

Author: Joseph Hart, 1712-1768 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 285 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession Lyrics: 1 Prayer is appointed to convey The blessings God designs to give; Long as they live, should Christians pray; They learn to pray when first they live. 2 If pain afflict, or wrongs oppress, If cares distract, or fears dismay, If guilt deject, if sin distress, In every case, still watch and pray. 3 'Tis prayer supports the soul that's weak; Though thought be broken, language lame, Pray, if thou canst or canst not speak, But pray with faith in Jesus' name. 4 Depend on Him; thou canst not fail; Make all thy wants and wishes known; Fear not, His merits must prevail; Ask but in faith, it shall be done. Scripture: Ephesians 6:18 Used With Tune: HURSLEY
