Don't Forget To Pray

Author: Miriam E. Arnold Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13104 First Line: When the day is dark and lonely Refrain First Line: Breathe out all your joys and sorrows Lyrics: 1 When the day is dark and lonely, Don’t forget to pray; Prayer will make your pathway brighter, Drive the clouds away. For your tender heav’nly Father Listens when you call, And in loving wisdom answers, Trust Him for it all. Refrain: Breathe out all your joys and sorrows In His listening ear; Is your way a maze before you? He will make it clear. Walking thus, and talking with Him In communion blest, In the secret of His presence, He will give you rest. 2 When the sun is brightly shining On your pilgrim way, Let the Savior share your gladness, Don’t forget to pray. For He longs to walk beside you, Your most trusted friend, And abide thro’ storm and sunshine To your journey’s end. [Refrain] 3 O the bliss this wondrous friendship Will your soul afford, Dwelling thus in closest union With your loving Lord; Till in Heav’n you shall behold Him, See Him face to face, And throughout eternal ages Praise Him for His grace. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [When the day is dark and lonely]

Chas. H. Gabriel

1856 - 1932 Composer of "[When the day is dark and lonely]" in Song Praises Pseudonyms: C. D. Emerson, Charlotte G. Homer, S. B. Jackson, A. W. Lawrence, Jennie Ree ============= For the first seventeen years of his life Charles Hutchinson Gabriel (b. Wilton, IA, 1856; d. Los Angeles, CA, 1932) lived on an Iowa farm, where friends and neighbors often gathered to sing. Gabriel accompanied them on the family reed organ he had taught himself to play. At the age of sixteen he began teaching singing in schools (following in his father's footsteps) and soon was acclaimed as a fine teacher and composer. He moved to California in 1887 and served as Sunday school music director at the Grace Methodist Church in San Francisco. After moving to Chicago in 1892, Gabriel edited numerous collections of anthems, cantatas, and a large number of songbooks for the Homer Rodeheaver, Hope, and E. O. Excell publishing companies. He composed hundreds of tunes and texts, at times using pseudonyms such as Charlotte G. Homer. The total number of his compositions is estimated at about seven thousand. Gabriel's gospel songs became widely circulated through the Billy Sunday­-Homer Rodeheaver urban crusades. Bert Polman
