What Various Hindrances We Meet

"Continue in prayer and watch in the same with thanksgiving." - Col 4:2

PRAYER• 5 VERSES

VERSE 1

What various hindrances we meet,
In coming to the mercy-seat!
Yet who that knows the worth of prayer
But wishes to be often there?

Pray'r makes the darken'd cloud withdraw;
Pray'r climbs the ladder Jacob saw,
Give exercise to faith and love,
Brings every blessing from above.

Restraining pray'r, we cease to fight;
Pray'r makes the Christian's armour bright;
And Saints trembles when he sees
The weakest saint upon his knees.

O Lord, increase our faith and love,
That we may all Thy goodness prove,
And gain from Thy exhaustless store
The fruits of prayer for evermore.

Were half the breath thus vainly spent,
To heav'n in supplication sent,
Our cheerful song would oftener be,
Hear what the Lord hath done for me.
