Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer

That calls me from a world of care,

And bids me at my Father's throne

Make all my wants and wishes known;

In seasons of distress and grief

My soul has often found relief

And oft escaped the tempter's snare

By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.

 

With all the intensity of pain and suffering in Haiti, we need to work AND pray. We are also mindful of your prayers that carried us through in our time of distress. We would not have made it without them. Seeing pictures of Haiti reminds me that we must be ready to press in and help. When we cannot go, we should give and when we cannot do either, we can still help by praying. It is in His presence that we find peace and strength to press on one more day.
