While We Lowly Bow Before Thee

While we low­ly bow be­fore Thee

Wilt Thou

gra­cious Sav­ior

hear?

We are poor and needy sin­ners

Full of doubt and full of fear;

Gracious Sav­ior

gra­cious Sav­ior

Make us hum­ble and sin­cere.

Fill us with Thy Ho­ly Spir­it;

Sanctify us by Thy grace;

Oh

in­cline us more to love Thee

And in dust our souls ab­ase.

Hear us

Sav­ior

hear us

Sav­ior

And un­veil Thy glo­ri­ous face.

None in vain did ev­er ask Thee

For the Spir­it of Thy love;

Hear us then

dear Sav­ior

hear us;

Grant an an­swer from ab­ove;

Blessèd Sav­ior

bless­èd Sav­ior

Hear

and an­swer from ab­ove.
