Hear us, O Hear us, Lord lyrics
by John Donne
Hear us, O hear us Lord; to thee
A sinner is more music, when he prays
Than spheres', or angels' praises be
In panegyric alleluias;
Hear us, for till Thou hear us, Lord
We know not what to say;
Thine ear to our sighs, tears, thoughts, gives voice and word;
O Thou who Satan heard'st in Job's sick day
Hear Thyself now, for Thou in us dost pray
