"Sweet hour"
Author: W. W. Walford Appears in 1,381 hymnals Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! Lyrics: 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 tempter's snare,
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer!
2 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! Used With Tune: SWEET HOUR

Psalm 23

Heavenly Shepherd, lead thy charge,
And my couch, with tenderest care,
"Mid the springing grass prepare.
2 When I faint with summer's heat,
Thou shalt guide my weary feet
To the streams that still and slow,
Through the verdant meadows flow.
3 Safe the dreary vale I trade,
By the shades of death o'erspread,
With thy rod and staff supplied,
This my guard and that my guide.
4 Constant to my latest end,
Thou my footsteps shall attend;
And shalt bid thy hallowed dome
Yield me an eternal home. Used With Tune: DIJON

Author: John Newton Appears in 625 hymnals Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: Approach, my soul! the mercy-seat Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul! the mercy-seat,
Where Jesus answers prayer;
There humbly fall before his feet,
For none can perish there.
2 Thy promise is my only plea,
With this I venture nigh:
Thou callest burdened souls to thee,
And such, O Lord! am I.
3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
By Satan sorely pressed;
By war without, and fears within,
I come to thee for rest.
4 Be thou my shield and hiding-place,
That, sheltered near thy side,
I may my fierce accuser face,
And tell him--thou hast died.
5 Oh, wondrous Love--to bleed and die,
To bear the cross and shame,
That guilty sinners, such as I,
Might plead thy gracious name! Scripture: Psalm 50:15 Used With Tune: GIFT

While with our praises and complaints,
Low at thy feet we bend.

With warm devotion rise!
How should our souls, on wings of love,
Mount upward to the skies!
3 Come, Lord! thy love alone can raise
In us the heavenly flame;
Then shall our lips resound thy praise,
Our hearts adore thy name.
4 Dear Saviour, let thy glory shine,
And fill thy dwellings here,
Till life, and love, and joy divine
A heaven on earth appear. Used With Tune: HYMN

The hour of prayer
Author: Charlotte Elliott Appears in 290 hymnals Topics: Prayer and Invocation First Line: My God, is any hour so sweet Lyrics: 1 My God, is any hour so sweet,
From blush of morn to evening star,
As that which calls me to thy feet
The hour of prayer?
2 Then is my strength by thee renewed;
Then are my sins by thee forgiven;
Then dost thou cheer my solitude,
With hopes of heaven.
3 No words can tell what sweet relief
Here for my every want I find;
What strength for warfare, balm for grief,
What peace of mind!
4 Hushed is each doubt, gone every fear;
My spirit seems in heaven to stay;
And ev'n the penitential tear
Is wiped away.
5 Lord, till I reach yon blissful shore,
No privilege so dear shall be
As thus my inmost soul to pour
In prayer to thee. Used With Tune: RISEHOLME
