Pour out thy Spirit from on high

Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 210 hymnals Scripture: Luke 18:1 Lyrics: 1 Lord, pour thy Spirit from on high, and thine assembled servants bless; graces and gifts to each supply, and clothe thy priests with righteousness. 2 Within thy temple when they stand, to teach the truth as taught by thee, Saviour, like stars in thy right hand, let all thy church’s pastors be. 3 Wisdom and zeal and faith impart, firmness with meekness, from above, to bear thy people in their heart, and love the souls whom thou dost love. 4 To watch and pray and never faint, by day and night their guard to keep, to warn the sinner, cheer the saint, to feed thy lambs and tend thy sheep. 5 So, when their work is finished here, may they in hope their charge resign; when the Chief Shepherd shall appear, O God, may they and we be thine.

The Lord, who truly knows

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 39 hymnals Scripture: Luke 18:1 Lyrics: 1 The Lord, who truly knows The heart of ev'ry saint, Invites us by his holy word, To pray and never faint. 2 He bows his gracious ear; We never please in vain; Yet we must wait till he appear, And pray, and pray again. 3 Tho' unbelief suggest, Why should we longer wait? He bids us never give him rest, But be importunate. 4 'Twas thus a widow poor, Without support or friend, Beset the unjust judge's door, And gain'd at last her end. 5 And shall not Jesus hear His children when they cry? Yes, tho' he may awhile forbear, He'll not their suit deny. 6 Then let us earnest be, And never faint in pray'r; He loves our importunity, And makes our cause his care.
