16b. Hour of prayer

1 Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
That calls me from this 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.
And oft escap'd the tempter's snare
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.
