Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #52 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: Jesus, who knows full well Lyrics: 1 Jesus, who knows full well
The heart of every saint,
Invites us all our grief to tell,
To pray and never faint.
2 He bows his gracious ear,
We never plead in vain;
Then let us wait till he appear,
And pray, and pray again.
3 Jesus, the Lord, will hear
His chosen when they cry;
Yes, though he may a while forbear,
He'll help them from on high.
4 Then let us earnest cry,
And never faint in prayer;
He sees, he hears, and, from on high,
Will make our cause his care. Languages: English Tune Title: LANGTON
