This is the way I learned it in 1973 at Young Life meetings.
The first two chords may have the wrong names, but they sound so sweet 
in the progression.  After the Dmaj7 I go to Bar chords up and down the neck
rockin along with speed and volume changes; imitating the way it was in the 
movie.  On the G#m and F#m you can substitute G#m7 and F#m7 since those are a 
little easier to bar chord and ease up on your concentration of playing and 
rock along with the prayer.

Oh, dear Lord, three things I pray:

G#m                C#
To see Thee more clearly,
To love Thee more dearly,
F#m                   B        E      resolve to E7 if you like 
To follow Thee more nearly, day by day.

Repeat at least 3 more times. varying speed, volume, and intensity. 
So play it like you feel it!  
It looks more complicated in print than it really is to play, but 
this depends heavily on your bar chord skills. 
After playing this song for 34 years, this is the first time I've 
tried to write down the chords and share it.  Hopefully this is a
good thing. 
ENJOY! More importantly, you can Pray & Praise as you Play & Sing.
