Refrain Behold, He cometh, The blessèd Bridegroom cometh, Then go ye forth to meet Him, A glad and grateful throng. Behold, He cometh, The blessèd Bridegroom cometh, Then go ye forth to meet Him, With a happy, happy song. Awake, ye that slumber, His welcome prepare. Awake and be ready, His banquet to share. The hour is approaching, No time for repose, The open door of mercy, Forever may close. Refrain Awake, ye that slumber, No longer despise The warning that bids you Be watchful and wise. The Bridegroom may tarry, But true to His word, Your blessèd call to meet Him Will surely be heard. Refrain

He comes—for oh, His yearning heart No more can bear delay— To scenes of full unmingled joy To call His bride away.

  The Bridegroom soon will call us, Come, all ye wedding guests! May not His voice appall us, While slumber binds our breasts; May all our lamps be burning, And oil be found in store, That we, with Him returning, May open find the door. There shall we see delighted Our dear Redeemer’s face, Who leads our souls benighted To glory by His grace; The patriarchs shall meet us, The prophets’ holy band, Apostles, martyrs, greet us In that celestial land. They will not blush to own us As brothers, sisters dear, Love ever will be shown us When we with them appear; We all shall come before Him, Who for us Man became, As Lord and God adore Him, And ever bless His Name. Our Father, rich in blessing, Will give us crowns of gold And, to His bosom pressing, Impart a bliss untold, Will welcome with embraces Of never ending love, And deck us with His graces In blissful realms above. In yonder home shall never Be silent music’s voice; With hearts and lips forever We shall in God rejoice; The angels shall adore Him, All saints shall sing His praise, And bring with joy before Him Their sweetest heav’nly lays. In mansions fair and spacious Will God the feast prepare, And ever kind and gracious, Bid us its riches share; There bliss that knows no measure From springs of love shall flow, And never changing pleasure His bounty will bestow. Thus God shall from all evil Forever make us free, From sin, and from the devil, From all adversity, From sickness, pain, and sadness, From troubles, cares, and fears, And grant us heavenly gladness And wipe away our tears.

  When descending from the sky The Bridegroom shall appear; And the solemn midnight cry, Shall call professors near: How the sound our hearts will damp! How will shame o’erspread each face! If we only have a lamp, Without the oil of grace. Foolish virgins then will wake And seek for a supply; But in vain the pains they take To borrow or to buy: Then with those they now despise, Earnestly they’ll wish to share; But the best, among the wise, Will have no oil to spare. Wise are they, and truly blest, Who then shall ready be But despair will seize the rest, And dreadful misery: Once, they’ll cry, we scorned to doubt, Though in lies our trust we put; Now our lamp of hope is out, The door of mercy shut. If they then presume to plead, “Lord open to us now; We on earth have heard and prayed, And with thy saints did bow:” He will answer from his throne, “Though you with My people mixed, Yet to Me you ne’er were known, Depart, your doom is fixed.” O that none who worship here May hear that word, Depart! Lord impress a godly fear On each professor’s heart: Help us, Lord, to search the camp, Let us not ourselves beguile; Trusting to a dying lamp Without a stock of oil.
