<p>Our lamps are trimmed and burning,<br>
Our robes are white and clean;<br>
We&#8217;ve tarried for the Bridegroom,<br>
Oh, may we enter in?<br>
We know we&#8217;ve nothing worthy<br>
That we can call our own&#8212;<br>
The light, the oil, the robes we wear,<br>
Are all from Him alone.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p class="refrain">Behold the Bridegroom cometh!<br>
And all may enter in<br>
Whose lamps are trimmed and burning<br>
Whose robes are white and clean.</p>
<p>Go forth, go forth to meet Him,<br>
The way is open now,<br>
All lighted with the glory<br>
That&#8217;s streaming from His brow.<br>
Accept the invitation<br>
Beyond deserving kind;<br>
Make no delay, but take your lamps,<br>
And joy eternal find.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
<p>We see the marriage splendor<br>
Within the open door;<br>
We know that those who enter<br>
Are blest forevermore.<br>
We see His is more lovely<br>
Than all the sons of men,<br>
But still we know the door, once shut,<br>
Will never ope again.</p>
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
