|
<p>Ye servants of the Lord,<br>
|
|
Each in his office wait,<br>
|
|
Observant of His heavenly Word,<br>
|
|
And watchful at His gate.</p>
|
|
<p>Let all your lamps be bright,<br>
|
|
And trim the golden flame,<br>
|
|
Gird up your loins, as in His sight,<br>
|
|
For awful is His Name.</p>
|
|
<p>Watch: ’tis your Lord’s command,<br>
|
|
And while we speak He’s near;<br>
|
|
Mark the first signal of His hand,<br>
|
|
And ready all appear.</p>
|
|
<p>O happy servant he,<br>
|
|
In such a posture found!<br>
|
|
He shall His Lord with rapture see,<br>
|
|
And be with honor crowned.</p>
|
|
<p>Christ shall the banquet spread<br>
|
|
With His own royal hand,<br>
|
|
And raise that faithful servant’s head<br>
|
|
Amid the angelic band.</p>
