And let your lights appear The evening is advancing And darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising And soon he will draw nigh Up! pray and watch and wrestle! At midnight comes the cry. See that your lamps are burning Replenish them with oil Look now for your salvation The end of sin and toil. The watchers on the mountain Proclaim the Bridegroom near Go meet him as he cometh With alleluias clear. O wise and holy virgins Now raise your voices higher Till in your jubilations Ye meet the angel choir. The marriage feast is waiting The gates wide open stand Up up ye heirs of glory! The Bridegroom is at hand. Our hope and expectation O Jesus now appear Arise thou Sun so longed for O er this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted We plead O Lord to see The day of earth s redemption And ever be with thee! Amen. [[Christian Hymns}} SUBPAGENAME ]]
