The Lord who recommendeth pray'r

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord who recommendeth pray'r, Will always hear us when we pray; His eyes behold us ev'ry where, And knows all we do think or say. 2 Ask ye by faith, the Lord will give, For this ye have the Saviour's word; Seek ye the Lord, your souls shall live, And taste the goodness of your Lord. 3 Seek ye by pray'r, and ye shall find Access unto the throne of grace; Ye shall partake the Saviour's mind, Who is your life and righteousness. 4 With fervent pray'r knock at the gate, Which opens to eternal life! And persevere in ev'ry fate, Through oppositions, war and strife. 5 Your fervent pray'rs are not in vain, They surely will at last prevail; Should God awhile from you refrain, Yet his sure word shall never fail. 6 To pray for that which we do need, And ask alone for Jesus' sake; We shall for evermore succeed, And all we need we shall partake.
