Father! we pray for those who dwell

Author: Miss Fletcher Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #1006 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Father! we pray for those who dwell Within the prison's gloomy cell! For those whose souls are bending low Beneath the weight of guilt and woe. 2 Thy love hath kept our thorny way, And saved us from sin's iron sway; Our brethren in a weaker hour Have yielded to temptation's power. 3 Teach us, with humble hearts, to feel How darkly on our brows the seal Of guilt might now perchance be set, Had we the same temptation met. 4 Then while the error we would shun, We ssill would aid the erring one To turn from sin's unpitying sway To virtue's fair and pleasant way.
