| Composer: | Arthur Willis Spooner |
1 Watch, Christian, watch for the signal,
Showing the Saviour is near;
Keep your eyes fixed on the hilltops,
Soon will the glory appear.
Refrain:
Work, watch, pray,
This is your Lord’s command;
Work, watch, pray,
He will be near at hand;
Work, watch, pray,
Fear not to take your stand,
Trust in the Lord forever alway
Work, watch, pray.
2 Work for the Lord seeks your service,
Work thro’ the bright golden day;
Soon will the night fall around thee,
Swiftly the hours pass away. [Refrain]
3 Pray for in pray’r strength is given,
Strength for the work you must do;
When you are weak call on Jesus,
He will come quickly to you. [Refrain]
