The open ear, O Lord, alive and quick to hear each whisper of thy word; like him to answer at thy call, and to obey thee first of all. 4 O give me Samuel's heart!

A sweet, unmurm'ring faith, obedient and resigned to thee in life and death, that I may read with childlike eyes truths that are hidden from the wise.
