Pray on, pray on, believing ones,
God’s promised word is sure,
That they shall overcome by faith
Who to the end endure:
Pray on, pray on, oh, weary not;
The cross with patience bear;
And though its burden weigh us down,
The Lord will answer prayer.
His eye foresees our greatest good,
While we at best are weak;
And thus in wisdom He withholds
The boon that oft we seek:
And yet His all-sufficient grace
He bids us freely share,
And in a way we little know
The Lord will answer prayer.
With anxious thoughts
for those we love
How oft our hearts are filled!
But soon the clouds are rolled away,
The troubles waves are stilled.
Then murmur not, but trust in Him
Who knows our every care—
And better for than we can ask.
The Lord will answer prayer.
