Lyrics
-
1. Ere you left your room this morning,Did you think to pray?In the name of Christ, our Savior,Did you sue for loving favorAs a shield today?
-
Oh, how praying rests the weary!Prayer will change the night to day.So, when life gets dark and dreary,Don’t forget to pray.
-
2. When your heart was filled with anger,Did you think to pray?Did you plead for grace, my brother,That you might forgive anotherWho had crossed your way?
-
Oh, how praying rests the weary!Prayer will change the night to day.So, when life gets dark and dreary,Don’t forget to pray.
-
3. When sore trials came upon you,Did you think to pray?When your soul was full of sorrow,Balm of Gilead did you borrowAt the gates of day?
-
Oh, how praying rests the weary!Prayer will change the night to day.So, when life gets dark and dreary,Don’t forget to pray.
