Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: The Hour of Praise #d33 (1872)

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: Laudes Domini #39 (1890) First Line: My God, is any hour so sweet Lyrics: 1 My God, is any hour so sweet, From blush of morn to evening star, As that which calls me to thy feet The hour of prayer? 2 Then is my strength by thee renewed; Then are my sins by thee forgiven; Then dost thou cheer my solitude, With hopes of heaven. 3 No words can tell what sweet relief Here for my every want I find; What strength for warfare, balm for grief, What peace of mind! 4 Hushed is each doubt, gone every fear; My spirit seems in heaven to stay; And ev'n the penitential tear Is wiped away. 5 Lord, till I reach yon blissful shore, No privilege so dear shall be As thus my inmost soul to pour In prayer to thee.
