Representative Text

Lord, give me a praying spirit,
a praying spirit.
Lord, help me to say yes,
yes, yes, Lord; yes, yes, Lord.
A praying spirit throughout the day,
a praying spirit in ev'ry way,
a praying spirit that I might stay
a praying spirit lest I faint.
Lord, give me a praying spirit,
a praying spirit.
Lord, help me to say yes,
yes, yes, Lord; yes, yes, Lord.

Lord, when I pray, give me words to say.
Lord, when I pray, give me words to say.
Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Lord.
Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Lord.
Yes, Yes, Lord.
Yes, Yes, Lord.
