NOW AT THIS HOUR OF PRAYER.

By T. R. Williamson

Now AT this hour of prayer Bow every knee to God, Bring every vexing care, Bring sorrow's weary load. Here at our Father's knee Lay we our troubles large, And in His presence free Throw down each heavy charge.

Not at His feet so low Do we in terror kneel; No, at His lap we bow, And our raised faces steal Looks at His holy eyes. Dear to Him sure we are; Up to His heart we rise, Children, His joy and care.

So, from this hour of prayer, Reft of each heavy load, Fitted to do and dare, Fitted to live for God, Forth let us go in faith, Knowing His mighty hand Leads in the victor's path Safe to the better land.

Children of God we are, Fitted to do and dare, Fitted by faith and prayer To live for Him.
