Author: Anon. Hymnal: Laudes Domini #462 (1890) Hymnal Title: Laudes Domini First Line: Father, hear the prayer we offer! Lyrics: 1 Father, hear the prayer we offer!
Not for ease that prayer shall be,
But for strength that we may ever
Live our lives courageously.
2 Not for ever by still waters
Would we idly quiet stay;
But would smite the living fountains
From the rocks along our way.
3 Be our strength in hours of weakness,
In our wanderings, be our guide;
Through endeavor, failure, danger,
Father, be thou at our side! Topics: Christian Experience; Activity; Christians Duties; Guidance; Missions; Activity; Christians Duties; Guidance; Missions Languages: English
