Sweet Hour of Prayer 

Verse 1:
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
That calls me from a world of care,
And bids me at my Father's throne
Make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief,
My soul has often found relief,
And oft escaped the temper's snare,
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

Verse 2:
Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
The joys I feel, the bliss I share
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.

Verse 3:
Violin Solo on first part of Verse 3
Display Lyrics
This robe of flesh I'll drop, and rise
To seize the everlasting prize,
And shout, while passing
Through the air, farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer.
