(Verse 1)
As I lay in silence and in pain,
All my strength was drained away.
For Your hand was heavy on my soul,
Through the day and night.
There is nothing hidden from Your eyes,
For You know my sin and shame
Hear my prayer, O Lord, O hear my cry,
Come and pardon this weary soul.
(Refrain)
You are my hiding place, O God,
My shelter from all trouble.
My lips shall sing of Your salvation,
You are my hiding place, O God.
(Verse 2)
As I fix my gaze upon the cross,
Where the Son of God was slain.
Pierced for all my sins, yes all my sins
Such a price divine
Now on bended knee I cry to You
Lord have mercy on my soul
Hear my prayer, O Lord, O hear my cry,
Stir my heart to delight in You.
(Bridge)
Teach me Your wisdom
Help me understand.
Give me Your counsel,
All my days.
Fix Your eye on me,
Surround me with Your grace—
My anchor, my hope, my delight!
Teach me Your wisdom
Help me understand.
Give me Your counsel,
All my days.
Fix Your eye on me,
Surround me with Your love—
My anchor, my hope, my delight!
(Outro)
Hear my prayer O Lord O hear my cry...
Hear my prayer O Lord O hear my cry…
Hear my prayer O Lord O hear my cry…
