O Sav­ior, teach us how to pray,
And choose the words that we would speak
While ga­thered here at close of day,
Thy throne of grace to hum­bly seek.

Refrain

Shut out the world and let us be
For one sweet hour shut in with Thee.

Thou know­est, Lord, how frail we are,
How prone to wan­der from Thy side;
Oh, keep us safe with­in Thy care;
Be Thou our shield, our friend and guide.

Refrain

Eternal Spir­it, Ho­ly Dove,
To seal our hearts the pow­er is Thine;
Unite us in the bonds of love,
And keep us one thro’ grace di­vine.
