THE PRAYER PERFECT



THE PRAYER PERFECT

Words by James Whitcomb Riley

Music by J. Roel Lungay

Arranged and performed by Fr. J. Roel Lungay

1
Dear Lord, kind Lord, gracious Lord, I pray.
Thou wilt look on all I love tenderly today!
Weed their hearts of weariness, scatter every care
Down a wake of angel wings winnowing the air.

(Interlude)

2
Bring unto the sorrowing all release from pain;
Let the lips of laughter overflow again
And with all the needy, O divide, I pray,
This vast treasure of content that is mine today.
