Watch And Pray That When The Master Cometh,
If At Morning, Noon, Or Night,
He May Find A Lamp In Every Window,
Trimmed, And Burning Clear And Bright.

Watch And Pray, The Lord Commandeth;
Watch And Pray, ‘Twill Not Be Long.
Soon He’ll Gather Home His Loved Ones,
To The Happy Vale Of Song.

Watch And Pray; The Tempter May Be Near Us;
Keep The Heart With Jealous Care,
Lest The Door, A Moment Left Unguarded,
Evil Thoughts May Enter There.

Watch And Pray, Nor Let Us Ever Weary;
Jesus Watched And Prayed Alone;
Prayed For Us When Only Stars Beheld Him,
While On Olive’s Brow They Shone.

Watch And Pray, Nor Leave Our Post Of Duty,
Till We Hear The Bridegroom’s Voice;
Then With Him The Marriage Feast Partaking,
We Shall Evermore Rejoice.
