A Call to Prayer
Religious Music · Other Songs - Religious Music
Hallow the closing day
Sweetly the Savior whispers
"Come to the throne and pray."
Refrain:
Softly I hear Him calling
Calling at close of day
Sweetly His tones are falling
"Come to the throne and pray."
Come, ere the shadows lengthen
Bring Him thy burdened heart
Come where His grace may strengthen
Come from thy cares apart.
Smiles of His love await thee
Lighting His lovely face
Just to behold His beauty
Dwell in the secret place.
Boldly we may approach Him
Mercy and grace to own
Tempted like us, He bid us
Come to the Father's throne...
