Lord and Savior, Hear Us

Representative Text

1 When to thee who hast thy dwelling,
In the heaven of light excelling,
We are youthful griefs are telling,
Lord and Savior, hear us.

2 When at birth of rosy morning,
Our glad songs shall greet the dawning,
When the sun the noon's adorning,
Lord and Savior, hear us.

3 Or when day's bright hours are ending,
When the shades of night descending,
We are at thy footstool bending,
Lord and Savior, hear us.

4 Then, O Fount of ev'ry truth,
Guard and guide us in our youth;
Cleanse our souls from ev'ry stain,
Take them pure to thee again.
