Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer!
Author: Walford Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 1,293 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 54:6 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 grace,
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;
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! Topics: Prayer; Sweet Hour of Prayer

Sweet is the work, my God, my King
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 778 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 54:6 Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the work, my God, my King,
To praise thy name, give thanks, and sing;
To show thy love by morning light,
And talk of all thy truth at night.
2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest;
No mortal cares should seize my breast;
Oh, may my heart in tune be found,
Like David's harp, of solemn sound.
3 My heart shall triumph in my Lord,
And bless his works, and bless his word;
Thy works of grace, how bright they shine!
How deep thy counsels! how divine!
4 Lord, I shall share a glorious part
When grace hath well refined my heart,
And fresh supplies of joy are shed,
Like holy oil, to cheer my head.
5 Then shall I see, and hear, and know
All I desired or wished below;
And every power find sweet employ
In that eternal world of joy. Topics: The Christian Church The Sabbath; A Hymn for the Sabbath

Save me, O God, by thy great name
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 54 Lyrics: 1 Save me, O God, by thy great name,
and judge me by thy strength:
2 hear thou my prayer, O God; give ear
unto my words at length.
3 For they that strangers are to me
do up against me rise,
oppressors seek my soul, and God
set not before their eyes.
4 Lo, God an helper is to me,
and therefore I am bold;
the Lord hath taken part with those
that do my soul uphold.
5 Unto my foes their wickedness
he surely shall repay:
O for thy truth’s sake cut them off,
and sweep them clean away.
6 I with a willing mind will give
a sacrifice to thee;
thy name, O Lord, because ‘tis good,
shall be extolled by me.
7 Because he hath delivered me
from all adversities;
and its desire mine eye hath seen
upon mine enemies. Used With Tune: ST JAMES

Save Me, O God, By Your Great Name
Save me O God for thy Name's Sake
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 54 Lyrics: 1. Save, me, O God, for thy Name's Sake;
Me by thy Pow'r defend,
2. Lord, hear my Pray'r; and let thine Ear,
Unto my Words, attend.
3. For Strangers, causeless, have combin'd,
They up against me rise;
Fierce Men thirst for my Life, who set
Not God before they Eyes.
4, The Lord's my Help, he'll head my Friends,
Who for my Life have stood;
5, My watchful Foes with Ill reward,
And all his Threats make good.
6. So will I Free-will Off'rings bring.
And to Thee sacrifice;
Thy Name I'll ever praise, O Lord;
'Tis pleasing in thine Eyes.
7. For he hath freed me from my Straits,
Which very great have been;
Mine Eyes, with Pleasure, thy Rebukes,
On all my Foes have seen.
Save me O God for thy Name's Sake
Save me, my God; protect me from the foe
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 54 Lyrics: 1 Save me, my God; protect me from the foe,
That all may fear, thy name, thy pow'r may know;
2 List to my pray'r; O turn a gracious ear,
3 For strangers strike my heart with sudden fear;
Against my peace the fierce oppressors rise;
And have not set thy vengeance 'fore their eyes.
4 But lo! the Lord's my help; he'll free my soul;
He'll the vile schemes of cruel men controul;
5 By their own impious arts themselves shall fall,
And in the toils they've laid shall perish all.
6 Therefore to him the solemn vow I'11 pay,
His praise I'll sing, his goodness I'll display;
7 For he from my distress will set me free,
And give success against my enemy.
Save me, my God; protect me from the foe
