6. Hymn: Sweet Hour of Prayer

 Hymn: Sweet Hour of Prayer
Author: William W. Walford (1772-1850)

1. Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
    That calls me from a world of care
    And bids me at my Father‵s throne
    Make all my wants and wishes known!
    In seasons of distress and grief
    My soul has often found relief,
    And oft escaped the tempter‵s snare
    By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

2. Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
    Thy wings shall my petition bear
    To Him whose truth and faithfulness
    Engage the waiting soul to bless;
    And since he bids me seek His face,
    Believe His word, and trust His grace,
    I‵ll cast on Him my ev‵ry care,
    And wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.

3. Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
    May I thy consolation share,
    Till from Mount Pisgah‵s lofty height
    I view my home and take my flight:
    This robe of flesh I‵ll drop, and rise
    To seize the everlasting prize,
    And shout, while passing through the air,
    "Farewell, farewell, sweet hour of prayer!"

Hymn: I Surrender All
Author: Judson W. Van DeVenter (1855-1939)

1. All to Jesus I surrender,
    All to Him I freely give;
    I will ever love and trust Him,
    In His presence daily live.

Refrain:
I surrender all, I surrender all;
All to Thee, my blessed Savior,
I surrender all.

2. All to Jesus I surrender,
    Humbly at His feet I bow;
    Worldly pleasures all forsaken,
    Take me, Jesus, take me now.

3. All to Jesus I surrender,
    Make me, Savior, wholly Thine;
    Let me feel Thy Holy Spirit,
    Truly know that Thou art mine.

4. All to Jesus I surrender,
    Lord, I give myself to Thee;
    Fill me with Thy love and power,
    Let Thy blessing fall on me.

2. Hymn: Trust and Obey

Hymn: Trust and Obey
Author: John H. Sammis (1846-1919)

1. When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,
    What a glory He sheds on our way!
    While we do His good will, He abides with us still,
    And with all who will trust and obey.

Refrain:
Trust and obey, for there’s no other way
To be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

2. Not a shadow can rise, not a cloud in the skies,
    But His smile quickly drives it away;
    Not a doubt or a fear, not a sigh or a tear,
    Can abide while we trust and obey.

3. Not a burden we bear, not a sorrow we share,
    But our toil He doth richly repay;
    Not a grief or a loss, not a frown or a cross,
    But is blessed if we trust and obey.

4. But we never can prove the delights of His love
    Until all on the altar we lay;
    For the favor He shows, for the joy He bestows,
    Are for them who will trust and obey.

5. Then in fellowship sweet we will sit at His feet,
    Or we’ll walk by His side in the way;
    What He says we will do, where He sends we will go;
    Never fear, only trust and obey.
