The Quiet Hour (Beard)

Author: George P. Beard Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Communion with my Father Refrain First Line: O Father, Spirit, Savior Lyrics: 1. Communion with my Father, In calm and quiet hour, Is sweet and rich in blessings, And Spirit’s gracious power; He speaks in tones so gentle, He hears my humblest prayer, In secret of His presence I feel my Father’s care. Refrain O Father, Spirit, Savior, Fill us with Thine own power; O, lead Thy loving children To seek the quiet hour. 2. When storms are fierce about me, And sorrow’s billows roll, I hear the Master gently Speak peace unto my soul; When heart is sore with anguish, And eyes are dim with tears, A quiet hour with Jesus Will banish pain and fears. [Refrain] 3. Oh, leave life’s noise and turmoil, And seek the quiet hour, That He who sees in secret May give thee spirit-power; There find your strength in weakness, And gird your armor on, Then forth to life’s great conflict Till victory is won. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Communion with my Father]
