Prayer, Sweet Prayer

Author: Charles M. Lewis Hymnal: Songs of Love and Praise No. 4 #13 (1897) First Line: How sweet is the blessing our hearts find in pray'r Refrain First Line: Prayer, prayer Lyrics: 1 How sweet is the blessing our hearts find in pray’r! What comfort and peace it inspires! A refuge in sorrow, a solace in care, A shield in temptation’s fierce fires. Refrain: Prayer, prayer, Balm for wounded hearts; Prayer, prayer, Shield for Satan’s darts; Prayer, prayer, Safeguard all the way, Till life’s rugged path leads up To realms of day. 2 How blest the assurance, when trials assail, That pray’r brings us strength to o’ercome; That our pleadings for succor shall ever prevail, Till at length we shall reach that blest home. [Refrain] 3 The young and the aged rejoice in its power, The weak and the weary at heart; Through life’s toilsome journey, in death’s trying hour Its promises will not depart. [Refrain] Tune Title: [How sweet is the blessing our hearts find in pray'r]
