Hymn 513
What various hindrances we meet
mf 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?
mf Prciy'r make s the darken'd cloud withdraw;
Pray'r climbs the ladder Jacob I saw.
Gives exercise to faith and love,
Brings every blessing from above.
mf Restraining pray'r, we cease to fight;
Pray'r make s the Christian's armour bright;
And Saints trembles when he sees
The weakest saint upon his knees.
mp 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 i evermore.
mf We re 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.
