Keeping Watch

While others sleep, I’ll watch for You;

I long to see Your face.

I’ll watch until You come for me

And I live in Your Grace.

While others sleep, I’ll watch for You;

I’ll keep my lamp light bright

That I may see You when you come

And not fear the worst night.

While others sleep, I’ll watch for You,

I’ll seek You every day.

While others sleep I’ll stay awake
To watch and praise and pray.

Luke 12: 35-36

 “Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, like servants waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him.
