Prayer Is the Soul's Sincere Desire

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Moravian Book of Worship #749 (1995) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Prayer; Prayer Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, unuttered or expressed, 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 way, while angels in their songs rejoice and cry, "Behold, he prays!" 5 Prayer is the Christians' vital breath, the Christians' 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 No prayer is made by us alone, the Holy Spirit pleads, and Jesus, on the eternal throne, for sinners intercedes. 8 O Christ, by whom we come to God, the life, the truth, the way! The path of prayer you also trod; Lord, teach us how to pray. Scripture: Psalm 6:9 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNFERMLINE
