Sanctuary Of The Heart.

Seq - Dr. J.Pitt-Payne. Kar - Bunty Pritchard Jones. May 2001.

I wandered alone in a strange land,
And life was so dark and drear,

When the sound of a voice seemed to call me
And brought to my mind a mem'ry dear;

It told of the Joy and the Gladness
That comes from the One above,

"Oh Lord, hear our prayer,
Take away all our care,
And fill all our hearts with love."

The sound of solemn chanting
Was borne to me from afar,

And the song seemed to draw me closer,
Like the light of a guiding star;

I turned from out the highway
To the Minster old and grey,

And the voices swelled in welcome
For a stranger come to pray.

My Soul was enthralled by the Message
That came from those voices clear,

And my Heart found a shelter and comfort
From the pain of this world so dark and drear;

I knew then, the Joy and the Gladness
As I prayed to the One above,

"Oh Lord, hear our pray'r
Take away all our care,
And fill all our hearts with Love."

Oh Lord, have mercy upon us
And upon those who pray to Thee,

Our Father, Who heareth us this day;
Oh Lord, have mercy upon all those who pray,

"Oh Lord, hear our pray'r,
Take away all our care,
And fill all our hearts with love."
