Lamps Trimmed and Burning

Let your lamps be trimmed and burn­ing

Lest your feet may go as­tray!

If you are the Lord’s dis­ci­ple

Unto sin­ners show the way!

We’ll go out with joy to meet Him

We’ll go out with joy to meet Him

At the mid­night hour;

If our lamps are trimmed and burn­ing

When He com­eth

when He com­eth

At the mid­night hour!

Let your lamps be trimmed and burn­ing

Let there be of oil no lack!

Be not like the fool­ish vir­gins

From the en­trance driv­en back!

Let your lamps be trimmed and burn­ing

Burning for eter­ni­ty!

Ready for the Lord’s ap­pear­ing

Whensoever it may be!

Let your lamps be trimmed and burn­ing

For the mid­night draw­eth near!

When the Bride­groom quick­ly com­eth

And we all His voice shall hear!
