Watching for the King's return. (for the King's return.)

Watching ever, (Ever watching, watching ever,)
Watching for the King's return;
Watching ever, (Ever watching, watching ever,)
Watching for the King's return.

Watching for the King's return!
Seeking heav'nly treasures, riches that endure,
Watching for the King's return. [Chorus]

Watching for the King's return!
To our Savior's glory, brightest stars to win,
Watching for the King's return. [Chorus]

Watching for the King's return!
Till we see His beauty, meeting face to face,
Watching for the King's return. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [O to be more faithful working day by day]
