C. M. H. Ware, Jr. For God's Presence. |
1 Father in heaven, to whom our hearts Would lift themselves in prayer, Drive from our souls each earthly thought, And show Thy presence there. 2 Each moment of our lives renews The mercies of the Lord; Each moment is itself a gift To bear us on to God. 3 Help us to break the galling chains This world has round us thrown; Each passion of our hearts subdue, Each cherished sin disown. 4 O Father! kindle in our souls A never-dying flame Of holy love, of grateful trust, In Thine almighty name.
