Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
禱告之時，甘甜之時！
That calls me from a world of care,
使我離開煩惱之事，
And bids me at my Father’s throne
來到神的座前，發表
Make all my wants and wishes known:
所有意願、所有需要；
In seasons of distress and grief
當我遇到重壓、憂愁，
My soul has often found relief,
我靈卻常得著自由，
And oft escaped the tempter’s snare
不陷惡者所有佈置，
By thy return, sweet hour of prayer.
因為有你⸺禱告之時！

Sweet hour of pray’r! sweet hour of pray’r,
禱告之時，甘甜之時！
The joy I feel, the bliss I share,
何等蒙福，快樂安適；
Of those whose anxious spirits bum
我靈深處，猶如火焚，
With strong desires for Thy return!
我心焦渴，望你來臨。
With such I hasten to the place
此情催我，進到你前，
Where God, my Savior, shows His face,
我神我主，瞻仰你面；
And gladly take my station there,
我樂逗留在此位置，
And wait for thee, sweet hour of pray’r.
將你等候⸺禱告之時！

Sweet hour of pray’r! sweet hour of pray’r,
禱告之時，甘甜之時！
Thy wings shall my petition bear
如有雙翼載我願辭，
To Him whose truth and faithfulness
到神寶座向祂求懇，
Engage the waiting soul to bless;
祂是信實，祂是全真。
And since He bids me seek His face,
祂既命我尋求祂面，
Believe His word, and trust His grace.
信祂話語，靠祂恩典，
I’ll cast on Him my ev’ry care,
我要將我重擔卸釋
And wait for thee, sweet hour of pray’r.
在於你前⸺甘甜之時！
