While we low­ly bow be­fore Thee,
Wilt Thou, gra­cious Sav­ior, hear?
We are poor and needy sin­ners,
Full of doubt and full of fear;
Gracious Sav­ior, gra­cious Sav­ior,
Make us hum­ble and sincere.

Fill us with Thy Ho­ly Spir­it;
Sanctify us by Thy grace;
Oh, in­cline us more to love Thee,
And in dust our souls abase.
Hear us, Sav­ior, hear us, Sav­ior,
And un­veil Thy glo­ri­ous face.

None in vain did ever ask Thee
For the Spir­it of Thy love;
Hear us then, dear Sav­ior, hear us;
Grant an an­swer from above;
Blessèd Sav­ior, bless­èd Sav­ior,
Hear, and an­swer from above.
