94. Always pray

1 Pray when the morning light is dawning;
Pray when the noon is shining bright;
Pray when the evening shadows darken;
Pray in the dark and solemn night;
Pray when the storm-clouds thickly gather;
Pray when the sky is bright and clear;
Pray in the name of Jesus ever,
Advocate and friend so dear.

Chorus:
Let us pray, always pray,
While we labor on for evermore.
Let us pray, always pray
'Till we rest on Canaan's happy shore.

2 Pray for the world in sin and darkness;
Pray for the church, the blessed bride;
Pray for thyself in humble meekness;
Pray, living near the Savior's side;
Pray for the sick and all in sorrow;
Pray for the "watchmen on the wall;"
Pray that a bright and golden morrow
Waiteth for us one and all. [Chorus]

3 Pray for the Spirit's holy guidance;
Pray for the grace of Jesus, too;
Pray for a holy zeal to labor;
Pray for a life devoted, true;
Pray for the loving lambs enfolded;
Pray for the wand'ring ones astray;
Pray that the feet of all be guided
Strait into the narrow way. [Chorus]
