Watch earnestly watch,
The Lord’s approach is nearing;
Pray, fervently pray,
No man can know the hour;
Like as a thief at night
is His appearing;
He cometh to judge
the world in truth and power.
Watch ye, pray ye,
soldiers of the Lord;
Work ye, wait ye,
trusting in His word;
Keep His commandments,
and His law obey,
And He will reward you
in the last great day.
Work, joyfully work,
All ye who knows His chast’ning;
Wait, patiently wait,
For your reward is nigh;
Lift up your heads,
the day of rest is hast’ning;
Rest, glorious rest,
with Jesus by-and-by.
Watch ye, pray ye,
soldiers of the Lord;
Work ye, wait ye,
trusting in His word;
Keep His commandments,
and His law obey,
And He will reward you
in the last great day.
Trust, loyalty trust,
And as to Him thou’rt clinging,
Keep, faithfully keep,
The Saviour’s blest commands;
Then in thy heart the blest
assurance ringing,
Know surely thy name
is written in His hands.
Watch ye, pray ye,
soldiers of the Lord;
Work ye, wait ye,
trusting in His word;
Keep His commandments,
and His law obey,
And He will reward you
in the last great day.
