ETERNAL FATHER, GRACIOUS KING,
we come to you in prayer;
accept the pleas your children bring,
enfold us in your care.

Lord, in your mercy
hear our prayer;
Lord, in your mercy
hear our prayer.
To your throne of grace we come
by your Spirit, through your Son:
in your mercy hear our prayer.

2 We come to you in Jesus’ name,
we plead his precious blood;
we leave behind our guilt and shame,
secure within your love.

Lord, in your mercy…

3 We come because the Spirit speaks
to calm our doubt and fear,
puts ‘Abba, Father’ on our lips,
and tells us to draw near.

Lord, in your mercy…
