Whilst others prayer restrain,
Nor lift a sigh to heaven,
To me, dear Lord, oh may there be
A praying spirit given.
Since each revolving sun
Brings with it loads of care,
let not a single day be spent,
Without returns of prayer.
A mercy-seat’s prepared,
Through Christ’s atoning blood;
There will I seek until I find,
An all-propitious God.
And if I’m called to wait,
Through many a cloudy day,
A glimpse, though on a dying bed,
Will all my pains repay.
