One little hour
of watching with the Master,
Eternal years
to walk with Him in white;
One little hour
to bravely meet disaster,
Eternal years
to reign with Him in light.
Then souls, be brave,
and watch until the morrow!
Wake! Arise!
Your lamps of purpose trim;
Your Saviour speaks
across the night of sorrow;
Can ye not watch
one little hour with Him?
One little hour
to suffer scorn and losses,
Eternal years
beyond earth’s cruel frowns;
One little hour
to carry heavy crosses,
Eternal years
to wear unfading crowns.
Then souls, be brave,
and watch until the morrow!
Wake! Arise!
Your lamps of purpose trim;
Your Saviour speaks
across the night of sorrow;
Can ye not watch
one little hour with Him?
One little hour
for weary toils and trials,
Eternal years
for calm and peaceful rest;
One little hour
for patient self-denials,
Eternal years
of life where life is blest.
Then souls, be brave,
and watch until the morrow!
Wake! Arise!
Your lamps of purpose trim;
Your Saviour speaks
across the night of sorrow;
Can ye not watch
one little hour with Him?
