Author: Lelia Naylor Morris Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14942 First Line: Read the times with keen discerning Lyrics: 1 Read the times with keen discerning,
Oh, ye servants of the Lord;
See the signs of Christ’s returning,
As is promised in His word.
Refrain:
If He should come tonight,
If He should come tonight,
Would He find us watching, waiting,
With our lamps all trimmed and bright?
If He should come tonight,
If He should come tonight,
Would He find us watching, waiting,
If the Lord should come tonight?
2 Note the earth already quaking,
’Neath our king’s oncoming tread;
Soon His voice, the silence breaking,
Shall awake the sleeping dead. [Refrain]
3 Suddenly and without warning,
He shall in the clouds appear,
And the great millennial morning
Of His pow’r is almost here. [Refrain]
4 He His chosen bride shall gather,
When He comes to earth again;
To the bosom of the Father,
Evermore with Him to reign. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Read the times with keen discerning]
