Text Based On Hebrews Chapter 4 (KJV)
There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works,
as God did from his.

OH, HOW BLEST THE HOUR!
1.
Oh, how blest the hour, Lord Jesus,
When we can to Thee draw near,
Promises so sweet and precious-
From Thy gracious lips to hear!
2.
Be with us this day to bless us,
That we may not hear in vain;
With the saving truths impress us,
Which the words of life contain.
3.
Open Thou our minds, and lead us-
Safely on our heavenward way;
With the lamp of truth precede us,
That we may not go astray.
4.
Make us gentle, meek, and humble,
And yet bold in doing right;
Scatter darkness, lest we stumble;
Men walk safely in the light.
5.
Give us grace to bear our witness-
To the truths we have embraced;
And let others both their sweetness-
And their quickening virtue taste.
