I have a funeral scheduled for tomorrow and the family has asked for a hymn (song?) called, "Ears to hear my prayer." I have no clue and cannot find this in any of my hymnals (Catholic and Protestant--Baptist, Pentecostal, etc.). If any of you have any leads I would appreciate it very much!!!
I believe it is a tune called "Humble Plea" by Fellowship Church.
The "ear, to hear my prayer" is the lyric phrase that sticks in the memory.
I can only find the guitar chords online.
It's on YouTube.
Hear oh Lord my humble plea
Listen to my cry
Give your ear, to hear my prayer
And answer me, oh Lord answer me
May the words that I speak
And the thoughts that I meditate on be
Pleasing to you
Here’s my humble plea
Take all that’s in me
Let it be yours
For your glory
Cause you are all I need
So take all that’s in me
Let it be yours
For your glory
I deny myself of selfishness
That used to robe my skin
It became my flesh until
I confessed my need
And brokenness for you
May the words that I speak
And the thoughts that I meditate on be
Pleasing to you
Here’s my humble plea
Take all that’s in me
Let it be yours
For your glory
Cause you are all I need
So take all that’s in me
Let it be yours
For your glory
My flesh may fail me
Heart may fail me
Everything I have may fail me
My only hope is resting at your feet
