Go when the morning shineth, Go when the noon is bright, Go when the eve declineth, Go in the hush of night; Go with pure mind and feeling, Put earthly thoughts away, And, in God’s presence kneeling, Do thou in secret pray. Remember all who love thee, All who are loved by thee; Pray, too, for those who hate thee, If any such there be; Then for thyself, in meekness, A blessing humbly claim, And blend with each petition Thy great Redeemer’s name. Or, if ’tis e’er denied thee In solitude to pray, Should holy thoughts come o’er thee When friends are round thy way, E’en then, the silent breathing Thy spirit lifts above Will reach His throne of glory, Where dwells eternal love. O, not a joy or blessing With this can we compare,— The grace our Father gives us To pour our souls in prayer: Whene’er thou pin’st in sadness, On Him who saveth, call! Remember, in thy gladness, His love who gave thee all. | Voices of Praise: for school and church and home #143 (1883) The New Sabbath School Hosanna: enlarged and improved: a choice collection of popular hymns and tunes, original and selected: for the Sunday school and the family circle... #178c (1870) A Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (15th ed.) #97 (1866) |
