We pray thee, heavenly Father
Author: V. Stuckey. S. Coles, 1845-1929 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #311 (1986) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Hymnal Title: The New English Hymnal Lyrics: 1 We pray thee, heavenly Father,
To hear us in thy love,
And pour upon thy children
The unction from above;
That so in love abiding,
From all defilement free,
We may in pureness offer
Our Eucharist to thee.
2 All that we have we offer,
For it is all thine own,
All gifts, by thine appointment,
In bread and cup are shown;
One thing alone we bring not,
The wilfulness of sin,
And all we bring is nothing
Save that which is within.
3 Within the pure oblation,
Beneath the outward sign,
By that his operation,--
The Holy Ghost divine,--
Lies hid the sacred body,
Lies hid the precious blood,
Once slain, now ever glorious,
Of Christ our Lord and God.
4 Wherefore, though all unworthy
To offer sacrifice,
We pray that this our duty
Be pleasing in thine eyes;
For praise, and thanks and worship,
For mercy and for aid,
The catholic oblation
Of Jesus Christ is made. Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Holy Communion Languages: English Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD
