Lord how long will thou tarry?
Till thou will come again
We all are almost fainting
As we watch thy coming
Lord how long will thou tarry?
To keep us waiting Thee
Many do not have belief
That thou will come again
2.
Lord how long will thou tarry?
Till thou shall hail on us?
Until we who expect Thee
Shall see Thee rejoicing
Awake thou sleeping virgin
Go proclaim His coming
That they who’ve slept already
May wake to welcome Him
3.
Arise, take Thy lamp, light it
Wear thy holy garment
Prepare thyself to meet Him
For He shall soon arrive
Lord how long will thou tarry?
Till thou cometh again?
That we may not get tired
Till we shall meet with Thee
Amen
