Lyrics Hear my Prayer - Felix Mendelssohn , Choir of King's College, Cambridge

Hear my prayer
Oh God, incline thine ear
Thyself from my petition
Do not hide
Hear my prayer
Oh god incline thine ear
Thyself from my petition
Do not hide
Thyself from my petition
Do not hide
Take heed to me
Hear how in prayer I mourn to thee
Hear how in prayer I mourn to thee
Hear how in prayer I mourn to thee
Take heed to me
Take heed to me
Without thee all is dark
I have no guide
I have no guide
No guide
Without thee all is dark
I have no guide
I have no guide
Hear my prayer
Oh God, incline thine ear
Thyself from my petition
Do not hide
Thyself from my petition
Do not hide
Hear my prayer
Oh God, Incline thine ear
Hear my prayer
Oh God, incline thine ear
The enemy shouteth
The enemy shouteth
The godless come fast
The godless come fast
Iniquity, hatred upon me they cast
Iniquity, hatred upon me they cast
The wicked opress me
The wicked opress me
Oh where shall I fly
Perplexed and bewildered
Oh, God hear my cry
Oh God hear my cry
Oh God (hear my cry)
Perplexed and bewildered
Oh god hear my cry
Oh God, oh God hear my cry
The enemy shouteth
The enemy shouteth
The godless come fast
The godless come fast
Perplexed and bewildered
Oh, God hear my cry
Oh, God hear my cry
God hear my cry
Perplexed and bewildered
Oh god hear my cry
Oh god hear my cry
God hear my cry
Oh god hear my cry
Oh god hear my cry
Oh god hear my cry
(Oh god hear my cry)
My heart is sorely pained within my chest
My soul with deathly terror is opressed
Trembling and fearfulness
Upon me fall
With horror overhelmed
Lord hear me call
Lord hear me call
Lord hear me call
Lord hear me call
Oh for the wings
For the wings of a dove
Far away
Far away would I rove
Oh for the wings
For the wings of a dove
Far away
Far away
Far away
Far away would I rove
In the wilderness build me a nest
And remain there for ever at rest
In the wilderness build me
Build me a nest
And remain there for ever at rest
In the wilderness build me a nest
And remain there for ever at rest
And remain there for ever at rest
And remain there for ever at rest
Oh for the wings of a dove
Far away
Far away would I rove
Far away
Far away would I rove
Far away
Far away would I rove
In the wilderness build me a nest
And remain there for ever at rest
Remain there for ever at rest
Remain there for ever at rest
Oh for the wings
For the wings of a dove
Far away
Far away would I rove
Oh for the wings
For the wings of a dove
Far away
Far away
Far away
Far away would I rove
In the wilderness build me a nest
And remain there for ever at rest
In the wilderness build me
Build me a nest
And remain there for ever at rest
In the wilderness build me a nest
And remain there for ever at rest
For ever at rest
And remain there for ever at rest
And remain there for ever at rest
And remain there for ever at rest
