Will Jesus Find Us Watching?

When Je­sus comes to re­ward His serv­ants

Whether it be noon or night

Faithful to Him will He find us watch­ing

With our lamps all trimmed and bright?

O can we say we are rea­dy

bro­ther?

Ready for the soul’s bright home?

Say

will He find you and me still watch­ing

Waiting

wait­ing when the Lord shall come?

If

at the dawn of the ear­ly morn­ing

He shall call us one by one

When to the Lord we re­store our ta­lents

Will He an­swer thee—Well done?

Have we been true to the trust He left us?

Do we seek to do our best?

If in our hearts there is naught con­demns us

We shall have a glo­ri­ous rest.

Blessèd are those whom the Lord finds watch­ing

In His glo­ry they shall share;

If He shall come at the dawn or mid­night

Will He find us watch­ing there?
