O THOU that hearest prayer, Attend our humble cry

Author: John Burton Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #304 (1873) Lyrics: 1 O THOU that hearest prayer, Attend our humble cry; And let thy servants share Thy blessings from on high: We plead the promise of thy word; Grant us thy Holy Spirit, Lord! 2 If earthly parents hear Their children when they cry; If they, with love sincere, Their children's wants supply; Much more wilt thou thy love display, And answer, when thy children pray. 3 Our Heavenly Father thou-- We, children of thy grace-- Oh, let thy Spirit now Descend and fill the place; That all may feel the heavenly flame, And all unite to praise thy name.

And send Thy Spirit down On all the nations, Lord, With great success to crown The preaching of Thy Word; Till heathen lands shall own Thy sway, And cast their idol-gods away. 6. Then shall Thy kingdom come Among our fallen race, And the whole earth become The temple of Thy grace; Whence pure devotion shall ascend And songs of praise, till time shall end.
