[size=large]Teach me Lord to Pray[/size]
Oh, teach me Lord to pray
That I may walk within thy way
So we may commune without delay
Oh quickly Lord! Teach me to pray
The day’s not started though I fear I’ve bartered
With that trap that does distract
Oh how I want to be exact!
And not waste this day and to learn to pray
Hours and hours they seem to devour
All the time I want to spend with Thee
Now I cower and admit this hour
That I have neglected Thee
Oh it’s Thee I must see
Or else I may cease to be
For the hour is come
Yea! In solitude to Thee I run
Brighter and brighter I’ll go
For tighter and tighter we grow
Ah! What love and communion it’ll be
With prayer I’ll arise with Thee
Oh teach me Lord, how to pray
That I might see that perfect day
I will shake myself from all that distracts
And bury myself deep and in a prayer sack
