The Answering Time Will Come

Representative Text

1. Ask what thou wilt, believing heart,
The answering time will come;
Pray and believe—that is thy part,
The answering time will come.

Refrain
The answering time will come;
The answering time will come.
Tho’ dark the way, still trust and pray,
The answering time will come.

2. Ask in the name of Christ thy Lord,
The answering time will come;
Rest on the promise of His Word,
The answering time will come. [Refrain]

3. God’s Word is sure; it cannot fail,
The answering time will come;
The prayer of faith shall yet prevail,
The answering time will come. [Refrain]

4. God will not mock believing prayer,
The answering time will come;
He knows the burden thou dost bear,
The answering time will come. [Refrain]
