"And at midnight a cry was heard: 'Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him! Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out. But the wise answered, saying, No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came....
Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
Matthew 25:6-13
Rejoice! Rejoice! our King is coming! And the time will not be long, Until we hail the radiant dawning, And lift up the glad new song.
Refrain
Oh, wondrous day! oh, glorious morning, When the Son of Man shall come! May we with lamps all trimmed and burning Gladly welcome His return!
Rejoice! Rejoice! our King is coming! And the time will not be long, Until we hail the radiant dawning, And lift up the glad new song.
