Author: Mrs. C. H. M. Hymnal: The Old Story in Song Number Two #15 (1908) First Line: Pray’r is the strong but secret chain Refrain First Line: He will answer, he will answer Lyrics: 1 Pray’r is the strong but secret chain
Which ever heav’n and earth unites;
And God, in love for fallen man,
Us to the throne of grace invites.
Refrain:
He will answer, he will answer,
Dare to trust him anywhere,
God will hear and answer pray’r,
He will answer, He will answer,
God will hear and answer pray’r.
2 Whatever need of heart or soul
The Spirit hath to you revealed,
To God in fervent pray’r hold on
Till he the cry of faith hath sealed. [Refrain]
3 The sinner’s penitential cry
Is always music to his ear;
If sin your burden is, draw nigh
In faith, he’s sure your pray’r to hear. [Refrain]
4 Sometimes the answer seems delayed,
Then wait and his salvations see;
For in his own good time and way,
The pray’r of faith shall answered be. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Pray'r is the strong but secret chain]
He Will Answer
