CGS No.: 

Verse 1
Come to the morning prayer,
Come, let us kneel and pray;
Prayer is the Christian pilgrim's staff,
To walk with GOD all day.

Verse 2
At noon beneath the Rock
Of Ages rest and pray;
Sweet is the shadow from the heat,
When the sun smites by day.

Verse 3
At eve shut to the door,
Round the home-altar pray,
And finding there the house of GOD,
At heaven's gate close the day.

Verse 4
When midnight seals our eyes,
Let each in spirit say,
I sleep, but my heart waketh, LORD,
With Thee to watch and pray.
