Hear And Answer Prayer

Words by Fanny J. Crosby


I am praying, blessed Saviour,
to be more and more like Thee;
I am praying that Thy Spirit
like a dove may rest on me.

Chorus:
Thou Who knowest all my weakness,
Thou Who knowest all my care,
while I plead each precious promise,
hear, O, hear and answer pray'r.

I am praying, blessed Saviour,
for a faith so clear and bright
that its eye will see Thy glory
through the deepest, darkest night.

I am praying to be humbled
by the pow'r of grace divine,
to be clothed upon with meekness,
and to have no will but Thine.

I am praying, blessed Saviour,
and my constant pray'r shall be
for a perfect consecration,
that shall make me more like Thee.
