[Ab] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Cm] _ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Sweet hour _ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] of prayer, _ _ _ _ [Ab] sweet _ hour _ [Bb] _ _ [Ab] of prayer.
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
While resting one day [Cm] _ _
by the side of the road,
_ _ [F] _
I saw an old farmer in a field.
[Bb] _ _
He just told.
_ _ _ [Eb] _
His face was [Ab] all [Eb] browned and _ wrinkled by the wind.
_ [Ab] _
_ And he is talking to the Lord, _ _ just like he'd
be talking _ [Gm]
to a friend.
_ _ _ _ [Cm] He said, _ _ well, [Abm] sir, _ _ [Eb] _
_ in a voice [Bb] calm and [Eb] quiet,
_ _ _ _ _ them corn tassels needs a sacking,
_ _ [Ab] _ _
but I got no string [Fm] to tie.
[Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ Ain't had no rain in so long. _ _ _
_ The fields is mighty dusty, [Ab] _
_ _ _ and it's been [Eb] so _ unbearable hot.
_ _ _ [Bb] _
Even the kids is getting [Eb] fussy.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] And you take the [Eb] grass in that pasture, Lord,
why, _ _ _
[Ab] why it ought to have been knee high. _ _ _
_ _ We could just get a [Eb] shower or two.
_ _ _ [Gm] [Cm] Might keep the cow from going dry.
_ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] Ah, but [Eb] _
_ _ listen to me a talking. _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ Why, you'd think that _
[Eb] I wasn't grateful.
_ _ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ And if you [Ab] didn't know me so well, Lord, _ _ _ _ _
you'd think I was _ downright hateful.
[Eb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Gm] [Cm] You'd think I wasn't thankful for _ [Eb] the new [F] calf
that you sent _ _ [Eb] and _ [Bb]
the money that came
in the mail to _ [Eb] catch up the rent.
_ _ _ [F] _ _ [Eb] Why, Ma's cold better, and _ [Ab] _
Johnny's home from the Navy. _ _ _
_ _ And that Sunday [Eb] dinner _ _ with chicken [G] _ [Cm] _
dumplings and gravy.
_ [F] _ _ _ [Eb] _
And the new preacher _ [Bb] you [Eb]
sent us, Lord,
_ _ _ _ he sure is a fine young man. _ _
[Ab] _ Why, he's been converting them [Eb] sinners _ just to beat the band.
_ _ _ _ _ Well, I guess I'll be _ moseying along, Lord,
and [Ab] _ not take up no more of your time.
[Eb] _
_ _ _ I guess the heap of [Bb] folks _ _ hereabouts
is waiting to ring [Eb] your line.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [G] _
[Eb] Evening to you, Lord, and _ [Ab]
watch over us tonight.
_ [Bb] _ _ [Ab] _ _
Don't go worrying _ [Eb] about _ us none, _ _ _ _ [Cm] _
because _ _ [Abm] _ [F] everything's
[Eb] _
going to be all right.
[Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I've anchored _ _ _ my _ _ [Ab] soul _ _ _ _ in the [Eb] heaven _ _ of [Fm] _ _ [Eb] rest. _ _ _
_ _ _ [Cm] _ I'll sail, _
[Eb] _ _ [F] though I'll see, _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ [Fm] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ though [Eb] _ the tempest _ _ _ may sweep _
_ _ _ [Ab] or the wild _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] storm. _ _
_ _ [G] _ _ _ [Cm] But with Jesus, _ [Abm] thank [F] God, I'm [Eb] safe.
Come here, God.
_ [Bb] Where's God?
_ [Eb]
Everyone's saying that.
Everybody's saying that.
I've anchored my soul in the heaven of rest.
_ [Ab] I've _ _ _ anchored my _ soul _ _ _ in [Eb] the _ _ _ heaven _ of rest.
_ _ _ _ _ [Cm]
I'll _ _ sail, though [F] I'll see, _ _ _ though [Fm] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ the _ [Eb] _
tempest _ _ may _ _ sweep
_ _ [Gb] or [Ab] _ the wild _ _ _ _ [Eb] storm.
Indeed.
_ _ _ [B] _ [Cm] It's Jesus.
_ [Abm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ I'm safe.
_ [Bb] _ _ _ _ [Eb] I'm
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Abm] _ [F] _ _
[Eb] _ safe _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ forever.
