Author: Charlotte G. Homer Hymnal: The Gospel Chorus #7 (1902) Hymnal Title: The Gospel Chorus First Line: When the soul is oppressed by the heat of the day Refrain First Line: The Lord answers pray'r, yes, the Lord answer pray'r Lyrics: 1 When the soul is oppressed by the heat of the day, And the clouds of contention hang over the way; When we faint ‘neath the burden He has called us to bear, There is joy in believing the Lord answers pray’r. Refrain: The Lord answers pray’r, yes, the Lord answer pray’r; There is joy in believing the Lord answers pray’r. 2 When the sunshine of gladness is flooding the soul, When the waves of temptation like sea-billows roll; When the pathway is lost in the tumult of care, There is joy in believing the Lord answers pray’r. [Refrain] 3 When the tempest is wildest and storm-winds are high, When the waters are calms as the stars in the sky; When our breaking hearts cry from the depths of despair, There is joy in believing the Lord answers pray’r. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [When the soul is oppressed by the heat of the day]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Hymnal Title: The Gospel Chorus Composer of "[When the soul is oppressed by the heat of the day]" in The Gospel Chorus Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
