Lyrics
Verse 1
Tis the blessed hour of prayer, when our hearts lowly bend, and we gather to Jesus, our Savior and Friend; if we come to Him in faith,
His protection to share, what a balm for the weary!
O how sweet to be there!
Verse 2
Tis the blessed hour of prayer, when the Savior draws near, with a tender compassion His children to hear; when He tells us we may cast at His feet every care, what a balm for the weary!
O how sweet to be there!
Verse 3
At the blessed hour of prayer, trusting Him, we believe that the blessing we're needing we'll surely receive; in the fullness of this trust we shall lose every care, what a balm for the weary!
O how sweet to be there!
Chorus
Blessed hour of prayer, blessed hour of prayer, what a balm for the weary!
O how sweet to be there!
