Book: The Valley of Vision, a collection of Puritan prayers.

Hymn by William Cowper

1 What various hindrances we meet
in coming to the mercy seat!
Yet who that knows the worth of pray’r
but wishes to be often there!
3 Restraining pray’r, we cease to fight;
pray’r makes the Christian’s armor bright;
and Satan trembles when he sees
the weakest saint upon his knees.

Hymn by John Newton

1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare,
Jesus loves to answer pray’r.
He Himself has bid thee pray,
rise and ask without delay.
2 Thou art coming to a King,
large petitions with thee bring,
for his grace and pow’r are such,
none can ever ask too much.
