1 Pray, brethren, pray! The sands are falling; Pray, brethren, pray! God's voice is calling. Yon turret strikes the dying chime; We kneel upon the verge of time: Refrain: Eternity is drawing nigh! Eternity is drawing nigh! 2 Praise, brethren, praise! The skies are rending; Praise, brethren, praise! The fight is ending. Behold, the glory draweth near, The King Himself will soon appear: [Refrain] 3 Watch, brethren, watch! The years are dying; Watch, brethren, watch! Old time is flying. Watch as men watch the parting breath, Watch as men watch for life or death: [Refrain] 4 Look, brethren, look! The day is breaking; Hark, brethren, hark! The dead are waking. With girded loins all ready stand, Behold, the Bridegroom is at hand: [Refrain]
