Come, brothers and sisters
who love one another,
And have done with
years that are gone;
How often we’ve met Him
in sweet heav’nly union,
Which opens the way to God’s throne.
There was Joshua and Joseph,
Elias and Moses,
That prayed, and God
heard from His throne.
There was Abraham and Isaac,
and Jacob and David,
And Solomon and Stephen and John.
Some tell us that praying,
and also that praising
Is labor that’s all spent in vain;
But we have such as witness
that God hears with swiftness,
From praying we will not refrain.
