Prayer Is The Soul's Sincere Desire

Author: J. Montgomery Hymnal: HFCH1928 #291 (1928) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, Unuttered or expressed; The motion of a hidden fire That trembles in the breast. 2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh, The falling of a tear; The upward glancing of an eye, When none but God is near. 3 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice Returning from his ways, While angels in their songs rejoice, And cry, "Behold, he prays." 4 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath, The Christian's native air, His watchword at the gates of death; He enters heaven with prayer.

My God, Is Any Hour So Sweet

Author: Charles Elliott Hymnal: HFCH1928 #293 (1928) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1 My God, is any hour so sweet, From blush of morn to evening fair, As that which calls me to Thy feet, The hour of prayer? 2 Blest is that tranquil hour of morn, And blest the solemn hour of eve, When, on the wings of prayer upborne, The world I leave. 3 Then is my strength by Thee renewed; Then are my sins by Thee forgiven; Then dost Thou cheer my solitude With hopes of heaven. 4 No words can tell what sweet relief There for my ev'ry want I find, What strength for warfare, balm for grief, What peace of mind. 5 Hushed is each doubt, gone every fear, My spirit seems in heaven to stay, And e'en the penitential tear Is wiped away.

Thanks To God Who Us Hath Given

Author: J. Paulli Hymnal: HFCH1928 #295 (1928) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Thanks to God who us hath given Grace abundant through the years; Thanks to Him whose peace from heaven Led our hearts through doubts and fears. 2 Hear us, Lord, as we are praying For the souls that strayed and fell; Call them home who still are straying, Wake them through the calling bell. 3 Send Thy willing servants thither On the highways, streets, and lanes That the fallen may come hither, Saved from everlasting banes. 4 That the fallen ones who wander And have lost God's word of love May catch sight of heaven yonder And the Christmas Star above. 5 When our ship in storm immerses And is threatened by its might, Come, O Jesus, on the surges, Be it even late at night. 6 Through the breakers safely guide us, That we land upon the shore; Thou dost help when woes betide us, Thou wilt help us evermore.

I Know, O God, I Need Thy Watchful Care

Author: Zakarias Nielsen Hymnal: HFCH1928 #296 (1928) Meter: 10.11.10.11 Lyrics: 1 I know, O God, I need Thy watchful care, Thou callest me when from Thy path I wander; Thou chidest me when sinful ways Thou breakest; I know Thy love for me is rich and warm, Yea, warmest when Thou me most strongly shakest. 2 I know Thou smitest not to do me harm, Thou lovest me when sinful ways Thou breakest; I know Thy love for me is rich and warm, Yea, warmest when Thou me most strongly shakest. 3 And yet each time Thy hand upon me lies, When I in sin have left Thy call unheeded, My heart breaks out in loud and bitter cries, I think Thou smitest more than it is needed. 4 How oft my prayer: "O God, Thy will be done!" Has unto Thee in confidence ascended; But when Thy will against mine own has gone, I knew it was my own that I intended. 5 I waver, then, but know that Thou art right, Thy guiding hand Thy willful child is training; Thy yoke is easy, and Thy burden light, I know I have no reason for complaining. 6 Teach me, O God, to will but what Thou wilt, And check Thou me when oft mine own I'm seeking; Chastize Thou me, but take away my guilt, And give me grace to hear when Thou art speaking.

Bread of heaven, bread of heaven Feed me till I want no more! 2 Open now the crystal fountain, Whence the healing streams do flow; Let the fiery, cloudy pillar, Lead me all my journey through; Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer, Be Thou still my strength and shield! 3 When I tread the verge of Jordan, Bid my anxious fears subside: Death of death and hell's destruction, Land me safe on Canaan's side: Songs of praises, songs of praises I will ever give to Thee.

It's Said That Life Is With Danger Fraught

Author: H. Rordam Hymnal: HFCH1928 #298 (1928) Meter: 9.10.9.8 Lyrics: 1 It's said that life is with danger fraught And that we may in its billows perish Before we enter the haven sought And reach the home which we cherish. 2 And true it is that the night may come With storm and darkness to vex the spirit Before we safely shall reach our home And shall God's blessing inherit. 3 But though we know we are small and poor And ever lowly is our condition, To noble visions we still may soar And gain our highest ambition. 4 For He is with us, the mighty Lord, And bears us forth as on eagle pinions Until our souls by His grace restored May brave all evil dominions.
