Prayer



Prayer is the rope up in the belfry; we pull it, and it rings the bell up in heaven. ---- Christmas Evans

The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working (James 5:16b, ESV). 

A hymn to read, sing, hum, or whistle to the glory of God: Sweet Hour of Prayer.  "Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer, thy wings shall my petition bear to Him, whose truth and faithfulness engage the waiting soul to bless: and since He bids me seek His face, believe His Word, and trust His grace, I'll cast on Him my ev - 'ry care, and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer (stanza 3).
