We are just upon the dawning

“Behold the bridegroom cometh”. Matt. 25:6

1.

We are just upon the dawning

Of that bright and glorious morning

When the bridegroom comes to call away His bride

We’ll be then caught up to meet Him

Hallelujah, what a greeting

When the bridegroom comes and

We’ll with Him abides

Then we’ll shout Hallelujah and

Sing Hallelujah

Glory, Hallelujah to our Lord

We will bow down before Him

Worship and adore Him

King of kings and Lord of lords

2.

Get your lamps all trimm’d and burning

For the bridegroom is returning

And the cry, go forth to meet Him

Soon will come

Be ye wise, make haste to meet Him

With your lamps lit, soon to greet Him

As He comes in clouds descending for His own

3.

At the mill, two will be grinding

In the field, two will be binding

When the bridegroom comes to

Catch away His own

Only one then will be taken

And the other one forsaken

Watch, ye know not when the hour

Your Lord doth come

Amen
