Evening Prayer
By Eclipse 6
Great God to thee an evening prayer,
Hear my words, accept my praise.
And thankful heart for blessing shown
Of wondrous grace and loving days.
For precious sky, for deepest green
For children close, for every hour
I have, I thank thee God and these
Shall witness to thy love and power
Lord I want to be with thee
Feel thy word, touch thy hand
Sing praises to my God and King
And thy glory understand
And thy glory understand
Yet still this young and callow heart
Too often blinded by desire
Ungrateful care from thee depart
And I in darkness thee require
Lord I want to be with thee
Heal my soul unearth my will
Come breath in me and I’m alive
Precious Father help me still
Precious Father help me still
Lord I want to be with thee
To join the friends of love that past
I’ll cloth you out of glorious fire
Life eternal found at last
Life eternal found at last
