And oft escaped the tempter's snare,
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

Engage the waiting the 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.

May I thy consolation share,
Till, from Mount Pisgah's lofty height,

Exhortation to Prayer
Author: Cowper Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCCLIII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Worship Hymns Before Prayer; Hymns before prayer First Line: What various hindrances we meet Lyrics: 1 What various hindrances we meet
In coming to a mercy-seat!
Yet who that knows the worth of prayer
But wishes to be often there?
2 Prayer makes the darkened clouds withdraw,
Prayer climes the ladder Jacob saw;
Gives exercise to faith and love,
Brings every blessing from above.
3 Restraining prayer we cease to fight;
Prayer makes the Christian's armor bright;
And Satan trembles, when he sees
The weakest saint upon his knees.
4 While Moses stood with arms spread wide,
Success was found on Israel's side;
But when thro' weariness they fail'd,
That moment Amalek prevail'd.
5 Have you no words? ah, think again,
Words flow apace when you complain,
And fill a fellow-creature's ear
With the sad tale of all your care.
6 Were half the breath thus vainly spent,
To Heaven in supplication sent;
Your cheerful song would oft'ner be,
"Hear what the Lord has done for me."

The Lord's Prayer
Author: J. Straphan Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCCLVIII (1792) Topics: Worship Hymns Before Prayer; Hymns before prayer First Line: Our Father, whose eternal sway Lyrics: 1 Our Father, whose eternal sway
The bright angelic hosts obey,
O! lend a pitying ear:
When on thy awful name we call,
And at thy feet submissive fall,
O! condescend to hear.
2 Far may thy glorious reign extend,
May rebels to thy sceptre bend,
And yield to sovereign love:
May we take pleasure to fulfil
The sacred dictates of thy will,
As angels do above.
3 From thy kind hand each temporal good,
Our raiment and our daily food,
In rich abundance come:
Lord, give us still a fresh supply,
If thou withhold thy hand, we die,
And fill the silent tomb.
4 Pardon our sins, O God! that rise,
And call for vengeance from the skies;
And while we are forgiven,
Grant that revenge may never rest,
And malice harbor in that breast
That fells the love of Heaven.
5 Protect us in the dangerous hour,
And from the wily tempter's power;
O! set our spirits free;
And if temptation should assail,
May might grace o'er all prevail,
And lead our hearts to thee.
6 Thine is the power, to thee belongs
The constant tribute of our songs,
All glory to thy name:
Let every creature join our lays,
In one resounding act of praise
Thy wonders to proclaim.

Everything to God in prayer!

Who will all our sorrows share?

Take it to the Lord in prayer.

Cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge-—
Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee?
Take it to the Lord in prayer;
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee,
Thou wilt find a solace there.

When daily cares our hearts would steal,
O, then to heav'n we look away,
And find in pray'r our surest stay. Languages: English Tune Title: BRADBURY

Prayer Is the Soul's Sincere Desire
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #387 (2006) Topics: Prayer Hymns about Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,
Unuttered or expressed,
The motion of a hidden fire
That trembles in the breast.
2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh,
The falling of a tear,
The upward glancing of the eye
When none but God is near.
3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech
That infant lips can try;
Prayer the sublimest strains that reach
The Majesty on high.
4 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,
The Christian's native air,
His watchword at the gates of death;
He enters heaven with prayer.
5 O Thou, by whom we come to God,
The Life, the Truth, the Way!
The path of prayer Thyself hast trod;
Lord, teach us how to pray.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: NAOMI
