To Thee our prayers we send; Do Thou from danger and from woe This dwelling-place defend. Here let Thy peace, O Father, rest; Here let Thy love abide! Our every joy in Thee more blest, Each sorrow sanctified. May our petitions when we meet, And every secret prayer, Come up before Thy mercy-seat, And find acceptance there.

The Hour of Prayer

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #506 (1866) Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: It is the hour of prayer Lyrics: It is the hour of prayer: Draw near and bend the knee, And fill the calm and holy air With voice of melody! O’erwearied with the heat And burden of the day, Now let us rest our wandering feet, And gather here to pray. The dark and deadly blight That walks at noontide hour, The midnight arrow’s secret flight, O’er us have had no power: But smiles from loving eyes Have been around our way, And lips on which a blessing lies Have bidden us to pray. O, blessed is the hour That lifts our hearts on high! Like sunlight when the tempests lower, Prayer to the soul is nigh; Though dark may be our lot, Our eyes be dim with care, These saddening thoughts shall trouble not This holy hour of prayer.

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: BHPPD866 #507 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: For mercies past we praise Thee, Lord Lyrics: For mercies past we praise Thee, Lord, The fruits of earth, the hopes of heaven, Thy helping arm, Thy guiding word, And answered prayers, and sins forgiven. Whene’er we tread on danger’s height, Or walk temptation’s slippery way, Be still, to lead our steps aright, Thy word our guide, Thine arm our stay! Be ours Thy blessed presence still; United hearts, unchanging love; No thought that contradicts Thy will, No wish that centres not above! And since we must be parted here, Support us when the hour shall come; Dry gently Thou the mourner’s tear, Rejoin us in our heavenly home. Languages: English

Moments and mercies multiplied Have made up all the day; Moments came fast, but mercies were More swift and free than they. New hours, new blessings, and new joys, Do a new song require; Till we can praise Thee as we should, Accept our hearts’ desire! Languages: English

Father, ’tis evening’s solemn hour, And cast we now our cares on Thee; Darkly the storm may round us lower, Peace is within,—Christ makes us free;— And when life’s toil and joy are o’er, And evening gathers on its sky, Our circle broke,—we sing no more,— O, may we meet and sing on high.

The Spirit of God Moved Upon the Waters

Author: Moore Hymnal: BHPPD866 #510 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Like morning, when her early breeze Lyrics: Like morning, when her early breeze Breaks up the surface of the seas, That, in their furrows, dark with night, Her hand may sow the seeds of light; Thy grace can send its breathings o’er The spirit, dark and lost before; And freshening all its depths, prepare For truth divine to enter there! Till David touched his sacred lyre, In silence lay the unbreathing wire, But when he swept its chords along, E’en angels stooped to hear the song. So sleeps the soul, till Thou, O Lord, Shall deign to touch its lifeless chord; Till, waked by Thee, its breath shall rise In music worthy of the skies. Languages: English
