Sweet Hour of Prayer
Words by: Attr. to William W. Walford
Music by: William B. Bradbury

 

Sweet

 hour

 of

 prayer!

 Sweet

 hour

 of

 prayer!

 

¯

That

 calls

 me

 from

 a

 world

 of

 care

 

And

 bids

 me

 at

 my

 Fa-

 ther’s throne

 

¯

Make

 all

 my

 wants

 and

 wish-

 es

 known.

 

In

 sea-

 sons

 of

 dis-

 tress

 and

 grief,

 

My

 soul

 hath

 of-

 ten

 sought

 re-

 lief

 

And

 oft

 es-

 caped

 the

 tempt-

 er’s snare

 

¯

By

 thy

 re-

 turn,

 sweet

 hour

 of

 prayer.

 

And

 oft

 es-

 caped

 the

 tempt-

 er’s snare

 

¯

By

 thy

 re-

 turn,

 sweet

 hour

 of

 prayer.
