[How great our gain that serve a King]
How great our gain that serve a King
Whom by petitioning we please,
Who numbers the requests we bring,
And counts them faithful services,
Our begging confidence approves,
And most the boldest suitor loves.
Whom by petitioning we please,
Who numbers the requests we bring,
And counts them faithful services,
Our begging confidence approves,
And most the boldest suitor loves.
Our Father's goodness we adore,
Who doth our praying hearts inspire,
Bestows whate'er we ask, and more,
More than our most enlarged desire,
And after all His blessings given,
Rewards our prayer itself with heaven.
