Prayer Is the Key (EN 916)

EN 916 Prayer Is the Key

Ps.41.2

Versi Version 1

1

Prayer is the key for the bending knee

To open the morn’s first hours;

See the incense rise to the starry skies,

Like perfume from the flow’rs.

2

Not a soul so sad, nor a heart so glad

When cometh the shades of night,

But the daybreak song will the joy prolong,

And some darkness turn to light.

3

Take the golden key in your hand and see,

As the night-tide drifts away,

How its blessed hold is a crown of gold,

Thro’ the weary hours of day.

4

When the shadows fall, and the vesper call

Is sobbing its low refrain,

’Tis a garland sweet to the toil-dent feet,

And an antidote for pain.

5

Soon our toils will cease, and will come release;

Life’s tears shall be wiped away,

As the pearl gates swing, and the gold harps ring,

And we enter eternal day.
