My God, is Any Hour So Sweet

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #421 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Topics: Nearness to God 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 There 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 e’en 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.

O For a Closer Walk with God

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #437 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Nearness to God Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God, A calm and heavenly frame, A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the Lamb! 2 Where is the blessedness I knew When first I sought the Lord? Where is the soul-refreshing view Of Jesus and His Word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their memory still! But they have left an aching void The world can never fill. 4 The dearest idol I have known, Whate'er that idol be, Help me to tear it from Thy throne, And worship only Thee. 5 So shall my walk be close with God, Calm and serene my frame; So purer light shall mark the road That leads me to the Lamb.
