Song Lyrics
[Verse 1] Lord, teach us how to pray aright with rev'rence and with fear. though dust and ashes in your sight, we may, we must draw near. [Verse 2] We perish if we cease from pray'r; Oh, grant us pow'r to pray. and when to meet thee we prepare, Lord, meet us on our way. [Verse 3] Give deep humility; the sense of godly sorrow give; a strong desire with confidence, to hear your voice and live; [Verse 4] Faith in the only sacrifice that can for sin atone; to cast our hopes, to fix our eyes on Christ, on Christ alone. [Verse 5] Give these, and then your will be done; thus strengthened with all might, we, through your Spirit and your Son, shall pray, and pray aright.
