Hymnal: Laudes Domini #114 (1884) First Line: When the weary, seeking rest Refrain First Line: Hear then in love, O Lord, the cry Lyrics: 1 When the weary, seeking rest,
To thy goodness flee;
When the heavy-laden cast
All their load on thee;
When the troubled, seeking peace,
On thy name shall call;
When the sinner, seeking life,
At thy feet shall fall;
Hear then in love, O Lord, the cry,
In heaven, thy dwelling-place on high.
2 When the worldling, sick at heart,
Lifts his soul above;
When the prodigal looks back
To his Father's love;
When the proud man from his pride
Stoops to seek thy face;
When the burdened brings his guilt
To thy throne of grace;
Hear then in love, O Lord, the cry,
In heaven, thy dwelling-place on high.
3 When the stranger asks a home,
All his toils to end;
When the hungry craveth food,
And the poor a friend;
When the sailor on the wave
Bows the fervent knee;
When the soldier on the field
Lifts his heart to thee;
Hear then in love, O Lord, the cry,
In heaven, thy dwelling-place on high.
4 When the man of toil and care,
In the city crowd,
When the shepherd on the moor,
Names the name of God;
When the learned and the high,
Tired of earthly fame,
Upon higher joys intent,
Name the blessed Name;
Hear then in love, O Lord, the cry,
In heaven, thy dwelling-place on high. Languages: English Tune Title: INTERCESSION
Hear, O Lord!
