Hear and Answer Prayer

lyricist: Fanny Crosby, 1889
Composer: William Kirkpatrick

I am pray­ing

bless­èd Sav­ior

To be more and more like Thee;

I am pray­ing that Thy Spir­it

Like a dove may rest on me.

Thou who know­est all my weak­ness

Thou who know­est all my care

While I plead each pre­cious pro­mise

Hear

oh

hear and an­swer pray­er.

I am pray­ing

bless­èd Sav­ior

For a faith so clear and bright

That its eye will see Thy glo­ry

Through the deepe­st

dark­est night.

I am pray­ing to be hum­bled

By the pow­er of grace di­vine

To be clothed up­on with meek­ness

And to have no will but Thine.

I am pray­ing

bless­èd Sav­ior

And my con­stant pray­er shall be

For a per­fect con­se­cra­tion

That shall make me more like Thee.
