Pray for Me

When you at the foot­stool of mer­cy

Are send­ing to Heav­en your plea

Remember in your in­ter­ces­sion

To of­fer a pray­er

too

for me.

Pray for me

pray for me

Wherever on earth you may be.

For

O it will help in the bat­tle of life

To know you are pray­ing for me.

What tho’ we may part far asun­der

Divided by land and by sea

I know I’ll have heav­en­ly bless­ings

If you will keep pray­ing for me.

I ask not a leng­thy pe­ti­tion

But yet when up­on bend­ed knee

’Twill com­fort me much on life’s jour­ney

To think you are pray­ing for me.

Until we shall meet ov­er yon­der

Our king and Re­deem­er to see

For you

my dear friends

I’ll keep pray­ing

While you are all pray­ing for me.

Pray for me

Wherever on earth you may be.
