My God, is any hour so sweet,

by Charlotte Elliott

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 325 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 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?

Verse 2

No words can tell, what sweet relief Here for my every want, I find; What strength for warfare, balm for grief, What peace of mind.

Verse 3

Hushed is each doubt, gone every fear; My spirit seems in heaven to stay; And e'en the penitential tear Is wiped away.

Verse 4

Lord, till I reach that blissful shore, No privilege so dear shall be A thus my inmost soul to pour In prayer to Thee.
