Attend our humble cry ;
And let Thy servants share
Thy blessing from on high :
We plead the promise of Thy Word ;
Grant us Thy Holy Spirit, Lord !
2 If earthly parents hear
Their children when they cry ;
If they, with love sincere,
Their children's wants supply:
Much more wilt Thou Thy love display,
And answer when Thy children pray.
3 Our heavenly Father Thou ;
We----- children of Thy grace ;
Oh, let Thy Spirit now
Descend and fill the place :
That all may feel the heavenly flame,
And all unite to praise Thy name.
