As Now Thy Children Lowly Kneel

 

VERSE 1

As now Thy children lowly kneel,

And all for mercy pray,

O Father, make us truly feel

The solemn words we say.

 

VERSE 2

Teach us to hate the power of sin,

Which parts our souls from Thee;

Help us to make our life within

What Thou wilt love to see.

 

VERSE 3

Teach us to trust the Lamb of God,

Who takes our sins away;

Help us to choose the path He trod,

And so Thy will obey.

 

VERSE 4

Teach us to keep Thy holy laws

Because we trust Thy love;

Help us to rise, when Jesus draws

To better joys above.

 

VERSE 5

O teach us more our sins to fear

And more Thy Word to love:

Help us on earth the cross to bear

And win the crown above.
