Watch Ye Saints

Lyrics Only

1. Watch, ye saints, with eyelids waking;
Lo! the powers of heaven are shaking;
Keep your lamps all trimmed and burning,
Ready for your Lord's returning.

Chorus
Lo! He comes, lo! Jesus comes;
Lo! He comes, He comes all-glorious!
Jesus comes to reign victorious, Lo!
He comes, yes, Jesus comes.

2. Lo! the promise of your Savior,
Pardoned sin and purchased favor,
Blood-washed robes and crowns of glory;
Haste to tell redemption's story.

3. Kingdoms at their base are crumbling,
Hark! His chariot wheels are rumbling,
Tell, O tell of grace abounding,
While the seventh trump is sounding.

4. Nations wane, though proud and stately;
Christ His kingdom hasteneth greatly;
Earth her latest pangs is summing;
Shout, ye saints, your Lord is coming.

5. Sinners, come, while Christ is pleading;
Now for you He's interceding;
Haste, ere grace and time diminished
Shall proclaim the mystery finished.
