Strengthen my power of faith! And let me lean on Christ alone Upon the shore of death. Languages: English Tune Title: AMBROSE (DULCE DOMUM)

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! 3 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! May I thy consolation share Till from Mount Pisgah’s lofty height I view my home and take my flight. In my immortal flesh I’ll rise To seize the everlasting prize. And shout while passing through the air, “Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!” Tune Title: SWEET HOUR
