What Various Hindrances We Meet

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: Hymns to the Living God #275 (2017) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 What various hindrances we meet in coming to the mercy seat! Yet who that knows the worth of pray'r but wishes to be often there! 2 Pray'r makes the darkened clouds withdraw; pray'r climbs the ladder Jacob saw; gives exercise to faith and love; brings ev'ry blessing from above. 3 Restraining pray'r, we cease to fight; pray'r makes the Christian’s armor bright; and Satan trembles when he sees the weakest saint upon his knees. 4 Have you no words? Ah, think again: words flow apace when you complain, and fill a fellow-creature’s ear with the sad tale of all your care. 5 Were half the breath thus vainly spent to heav’n in supplication sent, our cheerful song would oft’ner be, "Hear what the Lord hath done for me!"

What Various Hindrances We Meet

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7710 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. What various hindrances we meet In coming to a mercy seat; Yet who that knows the worth of prayer, But wishes to be often there. 2. Prayer makes the darkened cloud withdraw, Prayer climbs the ladder Jacob saw; Gives exercise to faith and love, Brings every blessing from above. 3. Restraining prayer, we cease to fight; Prayer makes the Christian’s armor bright; And Satan trembles, when he sees The weakest saint upon his knees. 4. While Moses stood with arms spread wide, Success was found on Israel’s side; But when through weariness they failed, That moment Amalek prevailed. 5. Have you no words? Ah, think again, Words flow apace when you complain; And fill your fellow creature’s ear With the sad tale of all your care. 6. Were half the breath thus vainly spent, To Heav’n in supplication sent; Your cheerful song would oft’ner be, Hear what the Lord has done for me. Languages: English Tune Title: BRESLAU
