WATCH
AND
PRAY |

CHRISTIAN, seek not yet repose,
Hear thy gracious Saviour say,
“Thou
art in the midst of foes:
Watch and pray.”
Principalities
and powers
Mustering
their unseen array,
Watch
for thine unguarded hours:
“Watch and pray.”
Gird
thy heavenly armor on,
Wear
it ever , night and day;
Ambush’d lies the Evil One:
“Watch and pray.”
Hear,
above all, hear thy Lord,
Him
thou lovest to obey;
Hide
within thy heart His words:
“Watch and pray.”
Watch,
as if on that alone
Hung
the issue of the day;
Pray
that the help may be sent down:
“Watch and pray.
