Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

We pray thee, heavenly Father 
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. 
Be thou our Guide and Helper, O Jesus Christ, we pray; so may we well approach thee, if thou wilt be the Way: thou, very Truth, hast promised to help us in our strife, food of the weary pilgrim, eternal Source of life. 
And thou, Creator Spirit, look on us, we are thine; renew us in thy graces, upon our darkness shine; that, with thy benediction, upon our souls outpoured, we may receive in gladness the Body of the Lord. 
O Trinity of Persons! O Unity most high! On thee alone relying thy servants would draw nigh; unworthy in our weakness, on thee our hope is stayed, and blest by thy forgiveness we will not be afraid.
