| Hear Thou in heaven their prayer and their supplication, and maintain their cause. (1 Kings 8:45) |
| Save me, O God, by Thy name, and judge me by Thy strength. Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. (Psa. 54:1‑2) |
| O Lord of hosts, that judgest righteously, that triest the reins and the heart … for unto Thee have I revealed my cause. (Jer. 11:20) |
O Thou who knowest all my thoughts, The hunger of my soul, The blighted hopes of bygone years, The dreams of life’s lost goal; O Thou whose love has never failed Though dark the night and long, To Thee I turn my weary eyes And hope springs forth in song. |
