Tis the blessed hour of prayer

1 Tis the blessed hour of prayer
when our hearts lowly bend
And we gather to Jesus
our Savior and Friend
If we come to Him in faith
His protection to share
What a balm for the weary
O how sweet to be there

Chorus
Blessed hour of prayer
Blessed hour of prayer
What a balm for the weary
O how sweet to be there

2 Tis the blessed hour of prayer
when the Savior draws near
With a tender compassion
His children to hear
When He tells us we may cast
at His feet every care
What a balm for the weary
O how sweet to be there

3 Tis the blessed hour of prayer
when the tempted and tried
To the Savior Who loves
them their sorrow confide
With a sympathizing heart
He removes every care
What a balm for the weary
O how sweet to be there
4 At the blessed hour of prayer
trusting Him we believe
That the blessing we re
needing we ll surely receive
In the fullness of this trust
we shall lose every care
What a balm for the weary
O how sweet to be there
