Jesus Answers Prayer

lyricist: Nellie Chandler, 1914
Composer: James Black

Tho’ sha­dows ga­ther and the way seems long

Clouds hide the sun­shine

God can give a song;

Let not thy cour­age fal­ter

nor des­pair

For Je­sus an­swers pray­er.

Jesus an­swers pray­er;

Jesus an­swers pray­er;

Ask of Him

and come be­liev­ing

For Je­sus an­swers pray­er.

He knows the way is hard: be not dis­mayed;

Trust in thy Sav­ior

O be not afraid;

Tho’ still un­ans­wered

trust His love and care

For Je­sus an­swers pray­er.

Can we not trust Him

who such love doth show?

He lights our path­way where­so­e’er we go;

His yoke is ea­sy

He the load will bear

For Je­sus an­swers pray­er.
