Lord, Teach Me To Pray

1 Lord, teach me to pray,
As you taught Your people long ago;
Lord, show me the way,
Lead me in the path that I should go, I should go.
When in early morning I pray my prayer to Thee,
Teach me how the prayer that I pray had ought to be;
And help me find the strength for my day, for my day,
Precious Savior, teach me how to pray, humbly pray.

2 Lord, teach me to pray,
Not my will but Thine in me be done,
I humbly will say, Savior, humbly I'll say,
Thus my ev'ry battle will be won, will be won.
Not my will but Thine, Lord, will bring Thy presence near,
When I listen closely, Thy still, sweet voice I hear;
And thank You Lord, for showing the way, heaven's way.
