"Sweet Hour Of Prayer" lyrics

"Sweet Hour Of Prayer"

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 tempter's snare
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer

Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer
May I thy consolation share
'Til from Mount Pisgah's lofty height
I view my home and take my flight

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!"

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!"
