God, My Father, Hear Me Pray

lyricist: James Holme, 1835
Composer: French and Welsh melody

God

my Fa­ther

hear me pray

Wash my crim­son guilt away;

Wretched

help­less

lost

un­done

Hear me for Thy bless­èd Son.

Lord

un­num­bered sins are mine

But eter­nal love is Thine.

God

my Sav­ior

look on me;

All my guilt I cast on Thee!

Give my trou­bled spir­it peace;

Bid my fears and sor­rows cease.

Lord

un­num­bered sins are mine

But eter­nal love is Thine.

God

my com­fort­er

my light

Strengthen me with ho­ly might;

Make Thy dwel­ling in my heart;

Faith and joy and hope im­part.

Lord

un­numbered sins are mine

But eter­nal love is Thine.

Blessèd

glo­ri­ous Trin­ity!

Holy

ev­er­last­ing Three!

Hear

O hear my ear­nest pray­er!

And my soul for Heav­en pre­pare!

Lord

un­num­bered sins are mine

But eter­nal love is Thine.
