1 verse:
Watch and pray, for the Lord is coming,
Coming in the clouds some day;
Wash your robes in the cleansing fountain,
What, oh, watch and pray!
Chorus:
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Oh, watch and pray ev'ry day,
For we know not the hour when the Lord shall come;
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Oh, watch and pray, ev'ry day,
And be ready to enter the soul's bright home!
2 verse:
He may come in the early morning,
He may come at close of day;
Watch and pray, in His promise trusting,
Watch, oh, watch and pray!
3 verse:
Soul, give heed to the Savior's warning,
And His blessed word obey;
Be prepared, when He comes, to meet Him
Watch, oh, watch and pray!
4 verse:
When He comes He'll reward the faithful,
What a glorious day 'twill be;
Joy awaits those who have made ready,
Watch, oh, watch and pray!
