Waking, Waiting, Working

"Love worketh no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law. And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light" (Romans 13:10-12).

Knowing the time, we ought to awake,
For the day of our Lord is at hand.
The night is far spent, the dawn will soon break,
So let us fulfill His command.

Let us love one another and shine through the night;
Let us labor till Jesus returns.
Let us put on the armor of God and His light,
And be done now with lesser concerns.
