A Christmas Past


Hymn for the Week

DID YOU THINK TO PRAY?

Ere you left your room this morning, Did you think to pray?
In the name of Christ, our Savior, Did you sue for loving favor As a sheild today?

CHORUS:
Oh, how praying rests the weary! Prayer will change the night to day.
So when life gets dark and dreary, Don't forget to pray.

When your heart was filled with anger, Did you think to pray?
Did you plead for grace, my brother, That you might forgive another Who had crossed your way?

REPEAT CHORUS

When sore trials came upon you, Did you think to pray?
When your soul was full of sorrow, Balm of Gilead did you borrow At the gates of day?

REPEAT CHORUS.
