O bended knee with needy hearts

we come and pray.
Lord, listen to your children.
With willing hearts and open arms
we come and pray.
Lord, listen to your children.
With simple words of heartfelt thanks
we come.
Believing in your promises,
we come.
O bended knee with needy hearts
we come and pray.
Lord, listen to your children,

What
A Friend
We Have
In Jesus

What a friend we have in Jesus, Have we trials and temptations?

all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
all because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged;
take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful
who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness;
take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden,

cumbered with a load of care? What
Precious Savior, still our refuge;
take it to the Lord in prayer. A Friend
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer!
In his arms he'll take and shield thee;
We Have
thou wilt find a solace there.
In Jesus

I, the Lord of sea and sky,
I have heard my people cry.
All who dwell in dark and sin
my hand will save.
I who made the stars of night,
I will make their darkness bright.
Who will bear my light to them?
Whom shall I send?
Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go, Lord, if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.
I, the Lord of snow and rain,
I have borne my people's pain.
I have wept for love of them.
They turn away.
I will break their hearts of stone,
give them hearts for love alone.
I will speak my word to them.
Whom shall I send?
Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go, Lord, if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.

I, the Lord of wind and flame,

I will tend the poor and lame,
I will set a feast for them.
My hand will save.
Finest bread I will provide
till their hearts be satisfied.
I will give my life to them.
Whom shall I send?
Here I am, Lord.
Is it I, Lord?
I have heard you calling in the night.
I will go, Lord, if you lead me.
I will hold your people in my heart.

Praise God, from whom

all blessings flow;
Praise him all creatures
here below;
Praise him above,
End ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son,
and Holy Ghost.
Amen.
