An Evangelistic Prayer


Father of mercies, bow Thine ear,
Attentive to our earnest prayer;
We plead for those who plead for thee,
Successful pleaders may they be!

Let thronging multitudes around,
Hear from their lips the joyful sound;
In humble strains thy grace adore,
And feel Thy new-creating power.

Let sinners break their massy chains
Distressed souls forget their pains,
And light through distant realms be spread,
Till Zion rears her drooping head.
