Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Inspirer and hearer of prayer 
 Inspirer and hearer of prayer, Thou Shepherd and Guardian of thine, My all to thy covenant care, I, sleeping or waking, resign. 
 If thou art my Shield and my Sun, The night is no darkness to me; And, fast as my minutes roll on, They bring me but nearer to thee. 
 A sovereign Protector I have, Unseen, yet for ever at hand; Unchangeably faithful to save, Almighty to rule and command. 
 His smiles and his comforts abound, His grace, as the dew, shall descend; And walls of salvation surround The soul he delights to defend.
