My God, is Any Hour So Sweet

Author: Charlotte Elliott Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #421 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Topics: God the Hearer of Prayer Lyrics: 1 My God, is any hour so sweet From blush of morn to evening star, As that which calls me to Thy feet, The hour of prayer? 2 Then is my strength by Thee renewed; Then are my sins by Thee forgiven; Then dost Thou cheer my solitude With hopes of heaven. 3 No words can tell what sweet relief There for my every want I find, What strength for warfare, balm for grief, What peace of mind. 4 Hushed is each doubt, gone every fear; My spirit seems in heaven to stay; And e’en the penitential tear Is wiped away. 5 Lord, till I reach yon blissful shore, No privilege so dear shall be As thus my inmost soul to pour In prayer to Thee.
