1. Pray, brethren, pray!
The sands are falling;
Pray, brethren, pray!
God’s voice is calling,
Yon turret strikes the dying chime;
We kneel upon the verge of time:
Refrain:
Eternity is drawing nigh!
Eternity is drawing nigh!
2. Praise, brethren, praise!
The skies are rending;
Praise, brethren, praise!
The fight is ending.
Behold, the glory draweth near
The King Himself will soon appear:
3. Watch, brethren, watch!
The years are dying:
Watch, brethren, watch!
Old time is flying!
Watch as men watch the parting breath,
Watch as men watch for life or death:
4. Look, brethren, look!
The day is breaking;
Hark, brethren, hark!
The dead are waking,
With girded loins all ready stand;
Behold, the Bridegroom is at hand!
