Shepherd Divine, Our Wants Relieve

Charles Wesley

6 Verses Shepherd & Sheep Intercessory Prayer

Verse 1

Shepherd divine, our wants relieve In this our evil day, To all Thy tempted followers give The power to watch and pray.

Verse 2

Long as our fiery trials last, Long as the cross we bear, O let our souls on Thee be cast In never ceasing prayer!

Verse 3

The Spirit of interceding grace Give us in faith to claim; To wrestle till we see Thy face, And know Thy hidden Name.

Verse 4

Till thou Thy perfect love impart, Till thou thyself bestow, Be this the cry of every heart, I will not let Thee go:

Verse 5

I will not let Thee go, unless Thou tell Thy name to me, With all Thy great salvation bless, And make me all like Thee:

Verse 6

Then let me on the mountain top Behold Thy open face, Where faith in sight is swallowed up, And prayer in endless praise.
