Confident Pleading

Verse 1

Bow down Thy ear, O Lord, and hear, For I am poor and great my need; Preserve my soul, for Thee I fear; O God, Thy trusting servant heed.

Verse 2

O Lord, be merciful to me, For all the day to Thee I cry; Rejoice Thy servant, for to Thee I lift my soul, O Lord Most High.

Verse 3

For Thou, O Lord, art good and kind, And ready to forgive Thou art; Abundant mercy they shall find Who call on Thee with all their heart.

Verse 4

O Lord, incline Thy ear to me, My voice of supplication heed; In trouble I will cry to Thee, For Thou wilt answer when I plead.

Verse 5

There is no God but Thee alone, Nor works like Thine, O Lord Most High; All nations shall surround Thy throne And their Creator glorify.

Verse 6

In all Thy deeds how great Thou art! Thou one true God, thy way make clear; Teach me with undivided heart To trust Thy truth, Thy Name to fear.
