Zion's Harp ‎#218

218. Blessed, holy, is the hour

1 Blessed, holy is the hour When we, Jesus, think of Thee, And Thy word in godly power Hear and in our hearts receive. So we pray to Thee, imploring, Open Thou our understanding! May we hear, as Mary heard, Sacred teachings of Thy word. 2 May it reach our hearts, we pray Thee; On good soil may it take root. With Thy heav’nly blessings nourished, May it bring the pleasing fruit. May we all in richest measure, Lord, to Thy great joy and pleasure, As Thy plants of honor grow! Amen! Yea, Lord, be it so!
