Praying to express the Lord
We must not ourselves express
But let Christ reveal Himself
His desire in us impress.
Praying to express the Lord
We must utter His intent
Quieting our human thoughts
That with His our mind be blent.
Praying to express the Lord
Ever looking unto Him
As a mirror to reflect
All His glory from within.
Praying to express the Lord
Letting Him beseech in us;
Christ indwelling prays within
To the Christ in heaven thus.
Praying to express the Lord
Learning not to pray by self
Praying wholly with the Lord
Praying only by Himself.
