Watch and Pray (Remix)

(Hallelujah, glory)

Keep your lamp trimmed, the King is coming home

Watch therefore, for you do not know

What hour your Lord is coming home

He’s nearer now than yesterday

Keep your lamp trimmed, keep the way

But know this, let your heart be wise

Lift your head and fix your eyes

For dawn will break, the trumpet sound

Be found in faith when He comes down

Yes Lord, we’re waiting here

If the master of the house had known

What hour the thief would come

He would have watched, stood his ground

Guarded the night till morning sun

So I will watch, therefore I will pray

I won’t sleep on grace, I won’t drift away

You’re coming like a river, like a rising storm

Like lightning in the east till the west is warm

I will watch, I will wait, with a ready heart

Jesus, Light of the world, tear the night apart

Praise Him, tear the night apart

Through the silence, through the ache

You are faithful, never late

Trim my pride and light my soul

Make me holy, make me whole

But know this, let the weary sing

Hope awakens at the King’s returning

Keep my vigil, keep my vow

Come, Lord Jesus—come now

Thank You Jesus, we are ready

If the master of the house had known

What hour the thief would come

He would have watched and not allowed

His house to be broken down

So I will watch, therefore I will pray

I won’t sleep on grace, I won’t drift away

You’re coming like a river, like a rising storm

Like lightning in the east till the west is warm

I will watch, I will wait, with a ready heart

Jesus, Light of the world, tear the night apart

Wake my soul, shake my bones

Open wide the ancient doors

Keep me burning in the night

Set my eyes on heaven’s shore

Teach me, Lord, to number days

Fill my mouth with faithful praise

Till the skies are split with light

Find me watching in the night

Amen, find me watching

Oh, the promise is sure, the dawn is near

We cast away all doubt and fear

With hands lifted high in the holy place

We stand secure in Your saving grace

Ready for the shout, ready for the sound

Ready for the King as He comes down

Oh, glory to the Lamb who reigns

Breaking all our earthly chains

So I will watch, therefore I will pray

I won’t sleep on grace, I won’t drift away

You’re coming like a river, like a rising storm

Like lightning in the east till the west is warm

I will watch, I will wait, with a ready heart

Jesus, Light of the world, tear the night apart

I will watch, therefore I will pray

Keep me steady on the narrow way

You’re coming like a whisper, like a roaring flood

Seal me by Your Spirit, bought by Your blood

Jesus, come—make all things new

Amen, Lord, make all things new

(Praise Him, Hallelujah)
