Teach me to pray, Lord, teach me to pray

Teach me to pray

Lord

teach me to pray;

This is my heart-cry day unto day;

I long to know Thy will and Thy way;

Teach me to pray

Lord

teach me to pray.

Living in Thee

Lord

and Thou in me

Constant abiding

this is my plea;

Grant me Thy power

boundless and free

Power with men and power with Thee.

Power in prayer

Lord

power in prayer!

Here ’mid earth’s sin and sorrow and care

Men lost and dying

souls in despair;

O give me power

power in prayer!

My weakened will

Lord

Thou canst renew;

My sinful nature Thou canst subdue;

Fill me just now with power anew;

Power to pray and power to do!

Teach me to pray

Lord

teach me to pray;

Thou art my pattern day unto day;

Thou art my surety

now and for aye;

Teach me to pray

Lord

teach me to pray.
