hear us

...start

Thou whose gen­tle care...

...Craving par­don for Thy foes;

Savior, for our par­don sue,...

...start

Hallowed Thy name be; hear us, we pray!...

...And in dust our souls ab­ase.

And un­veil Thy glo­ri­ous face....

...Prodigals, con­fess­ing all:

Christ, be­neath Thy cross we blame...

...Life of those who pass away:

Hear us for the men who fight...

...While on earth her faith is tried:

May her voice be ev­er clear,...

...God the Spir­it, Three in One,

Spare us, Holy Tri­ni­ty....

...Teaching fal­ter­ing hopes to speak;

Spirit, aid­ing all who yearn...

...Robed in might and ma­jes­ty,

Jesus, hear and save!...

...One eter­nal God and Lord:

Thou by whom the vir­gin bore...

...God the Spir­it, Three in One,

Spare us, Ho­ly Tri­ni­ty....

...Spirit, who giv­est the grace of re­pent­ance;

Jesu, ad­or­able Sav­ior of sin­ners,...

...From the wear­ing toil and strife,

When temp­ta­tions round us roll,...

...Born as man to live and die,

Leaving Thine eter­nal throne,...

...Lost in paths of sin we stray:

Help us to be­wail our sin,...

...Thou art pre­sent ev­ery­where.

Christ, who didst of old ap­pear...
