Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayer
1.Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayerThat calls me from a world of careAnd bids me at my Fathers throneMake all my wants and wishes knownIn seasons of distress and griefMy soul has often found reliefAnd oft escaped the tempters snareBy thy return sweet hour of prayer2 Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayerThe joys I feel the bliss I shareOf those whose anxious spirits burnWith strong desires for thy returnWith such I hasten to the placeWhere God my Saviour Shows His faceAnd gladly take my station thereAnd wait for thee sweet hour of prayer3.Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayerThy wings shall my petition hearTo Him whose truth are faithfulnessEngage the waiting soul to blessAnd since He bids me seek His faceBelieve His Word and trust His graceI will cast on Him my every careAnd wait for thee sweet hour of prayer4.Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayerMay I thy consolation shareTill from Mount Pisgahs lofty heightI view my home and take my flightThis robe of flesh I will drop and riseTo seize the everlasting prizeAnd shout while passing through the airFarewell farewell sweet hour of prayer
