604- We Know Not the Hour

Christian Life: Watchfulness

1

  • We know not the hour of the Master's appearing;
  • Yet signs all foretell that the moment is nearing
  • When He shall return; 'tis a promise most cheering;
  • But we know not the hour.

Refrain

  • He will come, let us watch and be ready;
  • He will come, hallelujah! hallelujah!
  • He will come in the clouds of His Father's bright glory
  • But we know not the hour.

2

  • There's light for the wise who are seeking salvation;
  • There's truth in the book of the Lord's revelation;
  • Each prophecy points to the great consummation;
  • But we know not the hour.

3

  • We'll watch and we'll pray, with our lamps trimmed and burning;
  • We'll work and we'll wait till the Master's returning;
  • We'll sing and rejoice, every omen discerning;
  • But we know not the hour.
