He bids us never give him rest, But be importunate. 4 'Twas thus a widow poor, Without support or friend, Beset the unjust judge's door, And gain'd at last her end. 5 And shall not Jesus hear His children when they cry? Yes, tho' he may awhile forbear, He'll not their suit deny. 6 Then let us earnest be, And never faint in pray'r; He loves our importunity, And makes our cause his care.

Beyond expression dear: If thou admit my humble claim, I bid adieu to fear. Topics: The Christain His Duty and Graces; Christian Graces Languages: English
