"Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, He is the King of glory" (Psalm 24:9,10). "Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come" (Matthew 24:42).
We are watching for that hour
That the Lord returns in power.
Then the Lord shall call us out
With His archangelic shout.
We are watching at our posts
For our King, the Lord of hosts.
By this hope God purifies
And makes the watcher thereby wise.
We are watching at His gates
With each kindred heart that waits,
Purified thereby from sin;
Come, Lord Jesus, enter in!
We know not the times or dates
For the lifting of those gates.
But we can wisely watch till when
Our King of glory comes again.
