First Line: Tis the hallowed hour of prayer,

'Tis the hallowed hour of prayer,
And we trustingly bring
All our doubtings and our fears
To our Saviour and King ;
For we know that He delights
A glad welcome to give,
And the blessings that we ask for
We shall fully receive.

Precious hour of prayer !
Hallowed hour o
Sacred season of communion,
It is sweet to be there !

2 'Tis the precious hour of prayer,
And we humbly entreat :
Father, breathe the Spirit now,
As we bow at Thy feet ;
Touch our lips with power of song ;
Fill our souls with Thy love.
And bestow the benediction
Of Thy peace from above.

3 'Tis the sacred hour of prayer,
Calm as heaven above ;
Soul to soul is breathing here
The communion of love ;
Every heart is sweetly filled
With a peace most profound ;
Oh, the place is like to heaven
Where such true joys abound.
