Hymn 419

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.

CHORUS

He will come (He will come), let us watch and be ready; He will come (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 comsummation, 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.
