[Verse 1]
      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!
