Text:Seasons for Prayer

463. Seasons for Prayer

Come at the morning hour,
Come, let us kneel and pray;
Prayer is the Christian pilgrim’s staff
To walk with God all day.

At noon, beneath the Rock
Of Ages, rest and pray;
Sweet is that shelter from the sun
In the weary heat of day.

At evening, in thy home,
Around its altar, pray;
And finding there the house of God,
With heaven then close the day.

When midnight veils our eyes,
O, it is sweet to say,
I sleep, but my heart waketh, Lord,
With Thee to watch and pray.
