Keep on watch­ing, O ye faith­ful,
Shall be ours, and be ours for­ev­er.
Shall be ours, and be ours for­ev­er.
O the King is sure­ly com­ing,
Morning light breaks in east­ern sky.
Morning light breaks in east­ern sky.
The sha­dows now be­gin to fall,

The time is draw­ing nigh

We shall see the King of glo­ry
As the days are go­ing by,
As the days are go­ing by,
When the bless­èd day of pro­mise we shall see;
What if it were to­day?
What if it were to­day?
When Christ our Lord shall come again
