Sweet Hour of Prayer Christian Background Music History in short.
“During my residence at Coleshill, Warwickshire, England, I became acquainted with W. W. Walford, the blind preacher, a man of obscure birth and connections and no education, but of strong mind and most retentive memory. In the pulpit he never failed to select a lesson well adapted to his subject, giving chapter and verse with unerring precision and scarcely ever misplacing a word in his re-petition of the Psalms, every part of the New Testament, the prophecies, and some of the histories, so as to have the reputation of “knowing the whole Bible by heart.” He actually sat in the chimney corner, employing his mind in composing a sermon or two for Sabbath delivery, and his hands in cutting, shaping and polishing bones for shoe horns and other little useful implements.
At intervals he attempted poetry. On one occasion, paying him a visit, he repeated two or three pieces which he had composed, and having no friend at home to commit them to paper, he had laid them up in the storehouse within. “How will this do?” asked he, as he repeated the following lines, with a complacent smile touched with some light lines of fear lest he subject himself to criticism. I rapidly copied the lines with my pencil, as he uttered them, and sent them for insertion in the Observer, if you should think them worthy of preservation

1. Sweet hour of pray’r! Sweet hour of pray’r!
That calls me from a world of care
and bids me at my Father’s throne
make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief
my soul has often found relief
and oft escaped the tempter’s snare
by thy return, sweet hour of pray’r!

Thy wings shall my petition bear

I’ll cast on Him my ev’ry care
and wait for thee, sweet hour of pray’r!

May I thy consolation share,
till from Mount Pisgah’s lofty height,
I view my home and take my flight;

and freed from earthly woe and care,
I’ll call: “Farewell, sweet hour of pray’r!

You may also consider these Christian Presentation Software’s:
- Easy Worship. Obviously, like it’s name, it is very easy to use. However because of the ease of use there are limitations. Therefore it is good for someone starting out.

- Media Shout. As a result of having the most features, a lot of training is required. However it has a powerful multi screen setup that allows for different presentations on different screens.
