Lord, My Petition Heed
- Lord, my petition heed,
now help me in my need,
my Savior be.
I am your servant, Lord;
my trust is in your word.
Mercy to me accord;
Lord, hear my plea. - Comfort your servant now,
while at your throne I bow,
for you are love.
Your pard’ning grace is free;
sinners who call in need
your tender mercy see,
O God above. - Lord, hear me while I pray,
while now in troubled day
I seek your face.
No god of man’s design
is like our God, divine;
most bright your glories shine,
O God of grace. - By all whom you have made
be praise and worship paid
through earth abroad.
Your name be glorified,
there is none great beside,
matchless your works abide,
for you are God. - Help me your will to do,
your truth I will pursue,
teach me to fear;
my heart now purify,
your name to glorify,
O Lord, my God Most High,
with heart sincere. - How great your love appears
that made death’s gloomy fears
no more dismay;
O God, to anger slow,
save me from ev’ry foe,
your lovingkindness show,
your truth display. - Show me your mercy true,
your servant’s strength renew,
deliv’rance send.
To me your goodness show,
your comfort, Lord, bestow;
let those who hate me know
you are my friend.
