Religion

O Saviour let Thy pitying love
Thy ceaseless efficacious prayer
This bar of unbelief remove,
That we Thy goodness may declare,
Open our lips Thy name to bless,
And bold before the world confess.

Loosed by Thy powerful Ephphatha
Thy witnesses their Lord adore,
In everything give thanks and pray,
Exult and triumph evermore,
And number'd with the children, I
Distinctly Abba Father cry.
