Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayer   That calls me from a world of care   And bids me at my father's throne   Makes all my wants and wishes known   In seasons of distress and grief   My soul has often found relief   And oft escaped the tempter's snare   By Thy return sweet hour of prayer      Sweet hour of prayer sweet hour of prayer   Thy wings shall my petition bear   To Him whose truth and faithfulness   Engage the waiting soul to bless   And since he bids me seek his face   Believe his word and trust his grace   I'll cast on him my every care   And wait for Thee sweet hour of prayer
