|  | 1. | Praying to express the Lord, | 
|  |  | We must not ourselves express, | 
|  |  | But let Christ reveal Himself, | 
|  |  | His desire in us impress. | 
|  | 2. | Praying to express the Lord, | 
|  |  | We must utter His intent, | 
|  |  | Quieting our human thoughts | 
|  |  | That with His our mind be blent. | 
|  | 3. | Praying to express the Lord, | 
|  |  | Ever looking unto Him | 
|  |  | As a mirror to reflect | 
|  |  | All His glory from within. | 
|  | 4. | Praying to express the Lord, | 
|  |  | Letting Him beseech in us; | 
|  |  | Christ indwelling prays within | 
|  |  | To the Christ in heaven thus. | 
|  | 5. | Praying to express the Lord, | 
|  |  | Learning not to pray by self, | 
|  |  | Praying wholly with the Lord, | 
|  |  | Praying only by Himself. |
