Praying to express the Lord,
|
|
| 1. | Praying to express the Lord, |
| | We must not ourselves express, |
| | But let Christ reveal Himself, |
| | His desire in us impress. |
| 2. | Praying to express the Lord, |
| | We must utter His intent, |
| | Quieting our human thoughts |
| | That with His our mind be blent. |
| 3. | Praying to express the Lord, |
| | Ever looking unto Him |
| | As a mirror to reflect |
| | All His glory from within. |
| 4. | Praying to express the Lord, |
| | Letting Him beseech in us; |
| | Christ indwelling prays within |
| | To the Christ in heaven thus. |
| 5. | Praying to express the Lord, |
| | Learning not to pray by self, |
| | Praying wholly with the Lord, |
| | Praying only by Himself. |
