1 I am praying, blessed Saviour,
To be more and more like thee;
I am praying that thy Spirit
Like a dove may rest on me.

Chorus:
Thou who knoweth all my weakness,
Thou who knowest all my care,
While I plead each precious promise,
Hear, oh, hear and answer prayer.

2 I am praying, blessed Saviour,
For a faith so clear and bright
That its eye will see thy glory
Thro' the deepest, darkest night. [Chorus]

3 I am praying to be humbled
By the power of grace divine,
To be clothed upon with meekness,
And to have no will but thine. [Chorus]

4 I am praying, blessed Saviour,
And my constant prayer shall be
For a perfect consecration,
That shall make me more like thee. [Chorus]
