O Lord, my prayer hear
Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Lord, my prayer hear,
and to my suppliant cry
in faithfulness give ear,
in righteousness reply.
2 In judgment call not me
thy servant to be tried,
no living man can be
in thy sight justified.
3 The foe my soul hath sought,
my life to earth doth tread;
to darkness me hath brought,
as those that long are dead.
4 My spirit therefore vexed
o'erwhelmed is me within;
my heart in me perplexed,
and desolate hath been.
5 Yet I to mind recall
what ancient days record,
thy works I ponder all,
I muse on them O Lord.
6 To thee I stretch my hands,
do thou my helper be,
behold as thirsty lands
my soul doth long for thee.
7 Lord, let my prayer prevail,
to answer it make speed;
my spirit quite doth fail:
hide not thy face in need;
lest I be like to those
that do in darkness sit,
or him that downward goes
into the dreadful pit.
8 Because I trust in thee,
O Lord, cause me to hear
thy loving-kindness free,
when morning doth appear:
make me to know the way
wherein my path should be;
because my soul each day
I do lift up to thee.
9 O Lord, deliver me
from all who me oppose:
to thee, my God, I fee,
to hide me from my foes.
10 No God have I but thee,
teach me to do thy will:
thy Spirit's good, lead me
in a plain pathway still. Scripture: Psalm 143 Used With Tune: ST CECILIA
O Lord, my prayer hear
Your kingdom come, O God!
Author: L. Hensley (1824-1905) Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 129 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Your kingdom come, O God!
your rule, O Christ, begin;
break with thine iron rod
the tyrannies of sin,
2 Where is your reign of peace
and purity and love?
When shall all hatred cease,
as in the realms above?
3 When comes the promised time,
the end of strife and war;
when lust, oppression, crime
and greed shall be no more?
4 O Lord our God, arise
and come in your great might!
revive our longing eyes
which languish for your sight.
5 As rebels scorn your name
and wolves devour your fold,
by many deeds of shame
we learn that love grows cold.
6 On nations near or far
thick darkness gathers yet:
arise, O Morning Star,
arise and never set!

My Spirit Longs for Thee
Author: John Byrom Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 117 hymnals Lyrics: 1. My spirit longs for Thee,
Within my troubled breast,
Though I unworthy be
Of so divine a guest.
2. Of so divine a guest
Unworthy though I be,
Yet has my heart no rest
Unless it come from Thee.
3. Unless it come from Thee,
In vain I look around;
In all that I can see
No rest is to be found.
4. No rest is to be found
But in Thy blessèd love;
O let my wish be crowned
And send it from above. Used With Tune: ST. CECILIA (Hayne) Text Sources: Miscellaneous Poems, 1773
