Earnest Prayer

Representative Text

1 Jesus comes with saving grace
To a child in earnest prayer,
And reveals his loving face,
Helps him ev'rywhere!

2 Jesus ever stands beside
Ev'ry child in earnest prayer!
Sends the Spirit to abide,
And for work prepare!

3 Jesus light and pow'r will give
To a child in earnest prayer!
In his righteousness to live,
And his glory share!
