Watch and Pray

Representative Text

1 Do you fear that you will fall?
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Trust in Him who leads us all,
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Answer, when He calls to you,
Lord, for Thee, what may I do?
And, to Him be ever true,
Watch and pray, watch and pray.

2 Are you strug’ling in the fight?
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Battling always for the right?
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Through the Saviour’s grace you’ll win
Vict’ry over death and sin,
And, in triumph, enter in,
Watch and pray, watch and pray.

3 Does the world exalt you high?
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Satan may be very nigh,
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
At the cross leave all your pride,
Keeping close to Jesus’ side,
Ever in His love abide,
Watch and pray, watch and pray.
