"The sacred fire"
Hymnal: Laudes Domini #36 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: Prayer is the breath of God in man Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the breath of God in man,
Returning whence it came;
Love is the sacred fire within,
And prayer the rising flame.
2 It gives the burdened spirit case,
And soothes the troubled breast;
Yields comfort to the mourning soul,
And to the weary rest.
3 When God inclines the heart to pray,
He hath an ear to hear;
To him there's music in a sigh,
And beauty in a tear.
4 The humble suppliant cannot fail
To have his wants supplied, Languages: English Tune Title: FARRANT

The hour of prayer
Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: Laudes Domini #39 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship 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. Languages: English Tune Title: RISEHOLME

A prayer in need
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #47 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: Come, my soul, thy suit prepare Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare,
Jesus loves to answer prayer;

Therefore will not say thee nay.

Lord! remove this load of sin;
Let thy blood, for sinners spilt,
Set my conscience free from guilt.
3 Lord! I come to thee for rest;
Take possession of my breast;
There, thy blood-bought right maintain,
And, without a rival, reign.
4 While I am a pilgrim here,
Let thy love my spirit cheer;
As my Guide, my Guard, my Friend,
Lead me to my journey's end.
5 Show me what I have to do,
Every hour my strength renew;
Let me live a life of faith,
Let me die thy people's death. Languages: English Tune Title: HENDON

"The evil hour"
Author: Michael Bruce Hymnal: Laudes Domini #49 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: Where high the heavenly temple stands Lyrics: 1 Where high the heavenly temple stands,
The house of God not made with hands,
A great High Priest our nature wears,
The Guardian of mankind appears.
2 Though now ascended up on high,
He bends on earth a brother's eye;
Partaker of the human name,
He knows the frailty of our frame.
3 Our Father-sufferer yet retains
A fellow-feeling of our pains;
And still remembers, in the skies,
His tears, his agonies, and cries.
4 In every pang that rends the heart,
The Man of Sorrows had a part;
He sympathizes with our grief,
And to the sufferer sends relief.
5 With boldness, therefore, at the throne,
Let us make all our sorrows known;
And ask the aid of heavenly power,
To help us in the evil hour. Languages: English Tune Title: OBERLIN

"The throne of grace"
Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #51 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: Behold the throne of grace! Lyrics: 1 Behold the throne of grace!
The promise calls me near;
There Jesus shows a smiling face,
And waits to answer prayer.
2 That rich atoning blood,
Which sprinkled round I see,
Provides for those who come to God
An all-prevailing plea.
3 My soul! ask what thou wilt;
Thou canst not be too bold:
Since his own blood for thee he spilt,
What else can he withhold?
4 Thine image, Lord, bestow,
Thy presence and thy love;
I ask to serve thee here below,
And reign with thee above.
5 Teach me to live by faith;
Conform my will to thine:
Let me victorious be in death,
And then in glory shine. Languages: English

Humility
Author: D. C. Colesworthy Hymnal: Laudes Domini #53 (1890) Topics: Close of Worship; Close of Worship First Line: While we lowly bow before thee Lyrics: 1 While we lowly bow before thee,
Wilt thou, gracious Saviour, hear?
We are poor and needy sinners,
Full of doubt and full of fear;
Gracious Saviour,
Make us humble and sincere.
2 Fill us with thy Holy Spirit;
Sanctify us by thy grace;
Oh, incline us more to love thee,
And in dust our souls abase.
Hear us, Saviour,
And unvail thy glorious face.
3 None in vain did ever ask thee
For the Spirit of thy love;
Hear us, then, dear Saviour, hear us;
Grant an answer from above;
Blessed Saviour,
Hear and answer from above.
