In everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Philippians 4:6
Words: Katharine A. Grimes, 1912.
Music: Kolkata Edwin O. Excell (🔊 pdf nwc).
Weary soul by sin oppressed,
Spend one hour with Jesus;
He will give your spirit rest,
Spend one hour with Jesus:
He has felt your grief before,
Numbered all your sorrows o’er,
He will every joy restore;
Spend one hour with Jesus.
Do you fear the gathering gloom?
Spend one hour with Jesus;
In the silent inner room,
Spend one hour with Jesus:
He will speak unto your soul,
Make your every heartache whole,
Point you to the heav’nly goal;
Spend one hour with Jesus.
Every need He will supply,
Spend one hour with Jesus;
He alone can satisfy,
Spend one hour with Jesus:
Oh, the mercy He will show,
Oh, the grace He will bestow,
Grace to conquer every foe;
Spend one hour with Jesus.
All along life’s stormy way,
Spend one hour with Jesus;
Call upon Him day by day,
Spend one hour with Jesus:
Tell Him all—He is your friend,
He will countless blessings send,
He will keep you to the end;
Spend one hour with Jesus.
