I want an Heart to pray
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CXXX (1791) Topics: liturgical Prayer Songs Lyrics: 1 I want an Heart to pray;
To pray, and never cease:
Never to Murmur at thy Stay,
Or with my Suff'rings less.
2 This Blessing above all,
Always to pray, I want;
Out of the Deep on thee to call,
And never, never faint.
3 I want a true Regard,
A single, steady Aim,
(Unmov'd by Threatning, or Reward--)
To thee, and thy great Name.
4 A jealous just Concern
For thine immortal Praise;
A pure Desire, that all may learn
And glorify thy Grace.
5 I want with all my Heart
Thy Pleasure to fulfil;
To know myself, and what thou art,
And what thy perfect Will.
6 I want, I know not what;
I want my Wants to see:
I want, alas! what want I not,
When thou art not in me? Languages: English

Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread;
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive them that trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen. Tune Title: [Our Father, who art in heaven]

Prayer Is the Soul’s Sincere Desire
Author: James Montgomery, 1771–1854 Hymnal: Hymns of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints #145 (1985) Topics: Prayer; Prayer and Supplication Lyrics: 1. Prayer is the soul’s sincere desire,
Uttered or unexpressed,
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 Christian’s vital breath,
The Christian’s native air,
His watchword at the gates of death;
He enters heav’n with prayer.
5. Prayer is the contrite sinner’s voice,
Returning from his ways,
While angels in their songs rejoice
And cry, “Behold, he prays!”
6. The Saints in prayer appear as one
In word and deed and mind,
While with the Father and the Son
Their fellowship they find.
7. Nor prayer is made on earth alone:
The Holy Spirit pleads,
And Jesus at the Father’s throne
For sinners intercedes.
8. O thou by whom we come to God,
The Life, the Truth, the Way!
The path of prayer thyself hast trod;
Lord, teach us how to pray. Scripture: James 5:16 Languages: English Tune Title: PRAYER

Pause in the midst of the throng,
Look unto Him,
Who can conquer all sin;
In thy weakness, in Him thou art strong. [Refrain]

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
Prayer Is the Soul's Sincere Desire
