In addition of course to many of the Psalms, here are some random examples of songs and hymns which are prayers (with thanks to those who have added to the list):
(Prayer can of course include praise. There is no hard and fast division but I have generally gone here for hymns or songs which directly address God, or one of the divine persons, and which include some kind of petition or request)
Abide with me
As we gather may Your Spirit work within us
Away in a manger
Be Thou My Vision
Bind us together, Lord
Breathe on me, Breath of God
Come down O Love divine
Come, Holy Spirit (Veni Sancte Spiritus)
Come thou long expected Jesus
Dear Lord and Father of mankind
Eternal Father Strong to Save … for those in peril on the sea
Father hear the prayer we offer
From the depths of shame and sorrow https://www.praise.org.uk/hymn/from-the-depths-of-shame-and-sorrow/
God be in my head
God save our gracious King! – The National Anthem
Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah / Redeemer
Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us
Lord, for the years your love has kept and guided
Lord of the church we pray for our renewing
Lord the light of your love is shining.... Shine, Jesus, Shine
Love divine, all loves excelling
Make me a channel of your peace
May the mind of Christ my saviour dwell in me from day to day
O Breath of life, come sweeping through us
O great God of highest heaven - (Valley of Vision) Sovereign Grace Music
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer (Sovereign Grace Music)
Open the eyes of my heart, Lord
Speak O Lord as we come to you
Take my life and let it be consecrated, Lord, to thee
Teach me, my God and king, in all things thee to see
Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son
