      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!

      A       A/C#          D       Bm7

    A        F#m         A    E7  A
And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer!
