I Will Pray

With fold­ed hands up­on my breast

When day­light fades away;

Sincerely

hum­bly I will pray

O Je­sus

watch me while I rest.

Morning

noon and night

I will pray

I will pray;

O keep me by Thy might

I will pray

I will pray.

When morn­ing sun is shin­ing bright

My hands I’ll lift in pray­er;

Keep me in safe­ty ev­ery­where

And help me al­ways choose the right.

Oft I will raise my pray­er­ful eyes

All thro’ the bu­sy day;

Deep in my heart I’ll soft­ly say

O Sav­ior

make me good and wise.
