[Verse 1]
A A7 D
Sweet hour of pray’r, sweet hour of pray’r,
A E A/E E
That calls me from a world of care,
E7 A A7 D
And bids me at my Fa-ther’s throne,
A F#m A/E E7 A
Make all my wants and wishes known…
E7 A A/C# D A
In sea-sons of dis-tress and grief,
A/C# D A E
My soul has of-ten found re-lief,
A A/C# D Bm
And oft es-caped the tempt-er’s snare,
A F#m A E7 A
By thy re-turn, sweet hour of pray’r.
[Verse 2]
A A7 D
Sweet hour of pray’r, sweet hour of pray’r,
A E A/E E
The joys I feel, the bliss I share,
E7 A A7 D
Of those whose anxious spirits burn
A F#m A/E E7 A
With strong desires for thy return!
E7 A A/C# D A
With such I hasten to the place
A/C# D A E
Where God my Savior shows His face,
A A/C# D Bm
And gladly take my station there,
A F#m A E7 A
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
[Tag]
A A/C# D Bm7
Sweet hour of pray’r, sweet hour of pray’r,
A F#m A E7 A
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
