WATCH AND PRAY
“Christian, seek not yet repose,”
Hear thy gracious Savior say;
Thou art in the midst of foes:
“Watch and pray.”
Principalities and powers,
Mustering their unseen array,
Wait for thy unguarded hours:
“Watch and pray.”
Watch, as if on that alone
Hung the issue of the day;
Pray, that help may be sent down:
“Watch and pray.”
