Prayer is the soul's sincere desire

Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 845 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 PRAYER is the soul's sincere desire, Uttered or unexpressed; The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear, The upward glancing of an eye When none but God is near. 3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech That infant lips can try; Prayer the sublimest strains that reach The Majesty on high. 4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice, Returning from his ways, While angels in their songs rejoice, And cry, 'Behold, he prays!' 5 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath, The Christian's native air, His watchword at the gates of death: He enters heaven with prayer. 6 The saints in prayer appear as one In word, and deed, and mind, While with the Father and the Son Sweet fellowship they find. 7 O thou by whom we come to God, The Life, the Truth, the Way, The path of prayer thyself hast trod: Lord, teach us how to pray.
