604   We Know Not the Hour




[1]
We know not the hour of the Master s appearing;
Yet signs all foretell that the moment is nearing
When He shall return; tis a promise most cheering;
But we know not the hour.

[C]
He will come let us watch and be ready;
He will come hallelujah! hallelujah!
He will come in the clouds of His Father s bright glory
But we know not the hour.

[2]
There s light for the wise who are seeking salvation;
There s truth in the book of the Lord s revelation;
Each prophecy points to the great consummation;
But we know not the hour.

[C]
He will come let us watch and be ready;
He will come hallelujah! hallelujah!
He will come in the clouds of His Father s bright glory
But we know not the hour.

[3]
We ll watch and we ll pray with our lamps trimmed and burning;
We ll work and we ll wait till the Master s returning;
We ll sing and rejoice every omen discerning;
But we know not the hour.

[C]
He will come let us watch and be ready;
He will come hallelujah! hallelujah!
He will come in the clouds of His Father s bright glory
But we know not the hour.
