There is rest, sweet rest,
at the Master’s feet,
There is favor now at the mercy seat,
For atoning blood
has been sprinkled there;
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
There’s a blessing in prayer,
in believing prayer,
When our Savior’s Name
to the throne we bear;
Then a Father’s love
will receive us there;
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
There is grace to help
in our time of need,
For our Friend above
is a Friend, indeed;
We may cast on Him
every grief and care;
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
There’s a blessing in prayer,
in believing prayer,
When our Savior’s Name
to the throne we bear;
Then a Father’s love
will receive us there;
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
When our songs are glad
with the joy of life,
When our hearts are sad
with its ills and strife,
When the powers of sin
would the soul ensnare,
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
There’s a blessing in prayer,
in believing prayer,
When our Savior’s Name
to the throne we bear;
Then a Father’s love
will receive us there;
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
There is perfect peace
tho’ the wild waves roll,
There are gifts of love
for the seeking soul,
Till we praise the Lord
in His home so fair,
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
There’s a blessing in prayer,
in believing prayer,
When our Savior’s Name
to the throne we bear;
Then a Father’s love
will receive us there;
There is always a blessing,
a blessing in prayer.
