[1] Sweet hour of prayer sweet [4] hour of prayer
That [1] calls me from a world of [5] care
And [1] beckons me to my [4] Savior's throne
Makes [1] all my wants and [5] wishes [1] known [5]

[1] In seasons [4] of dis-[1]-tress and grief
My soul has [4] often [1] found re-[5]-lief
And [1] oft escaped the [4] tempter's snare
By [1] thy return sweet [5] hour of [1] prayer

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 bid me seek his faith
Believe in him and trust his grace
I'll cast on him my every care
And wait for thee sweet hour of prayer
