CHILD'S PRAYER.

They that seek me early shall find me. —Prov. viii. 17.

Holy Father! hear my cry,
Holy Saviour! bend thine ear,
Holy Spirit! come thou nigh,—
Father, Saviour, Spirit, hear.
Father, I am dead in sin,
Saviour, I thy mercy crave,
Gracious Spirit, make me clean;
Father, Son, and Spirit save.
Father, let me taste thy love,
Saviour, fill my soul with peace,
Spirit, come my heart to move;
Father, Son, and Spirit bless.
Father, Son, and Spirit,—thou
One Jehovah, shed abroad
All thy grace within me now;
Be my Father and my God.
