Matthew 25:10

• [Mat 25:10] Rejoice, Rejoice, Believers

  Rejoice, rejoice, believers, and let your lights appear. The evening is advancing, and darker night is near. The Bridegroom is arising, and soon He draweth nigh. Up, pray, and watch, and wrestle: At midnight comes the cry. See that your lamps are burning; replenish them with oil. And wait for your salvation, the end of earthly toil. The watchers on the mountain proclaim the Bridegroom near. Go meet Him as He cometh, with alleluias clear. O wise and holy virgins, now raise your voices higher, Until in songs of triumph ye meet the angel choir. The marriage feast is waiting, the gates wide open stand; Rise up, ye heirs of glory, the Bridegroom is at hand. Our hope and expectation, O Jesus, now appear! Arise, Thou Sun so longed for, over this benighted sphere! With hearts and hands uplifted, we plead, O Lord, to see The day of earth’s redemption that brings us unto Thee. Ye saints, who here in patience your cross and sufferings bore, Shall live and reign forever, when sorrow is no more. Around the throne of glory the Lamb ye shall behold; In triumph cast before Him your diadems of gold!

• [Mat 25:10] Sleepers, Wake! The Watch Cry Pealeth

  “Sleepers, wake!” the watch cry pealeth, While slumber deep each eyelid sealeth: Awake, Jerusalem, awake! Midnight’s solemn hour is tolling, And seraph-notes are onward rolling; They call on us our part to take. Come forth, ye virgins wise: The Bridegroom comes, arise! Alleluia! Each lamp be bright with ready light To grace the marriage feast tonight. Zion hears the voice that singeth With sudden joy her glad heart springeth, At once she wakes, she stands arrayed: Her Light is come, her Star ascending, Lo, girt with truth, with mercy blending, Her Bridegroom there, so long delayed. All hail! God’s glorious Son, All hail! our joy and crown, Alleluia! The joyful call we answer all, And follow to the bridal hall. Praise to Him Who goes before us! Let men and angels join in chorus, Let harp and cymbal add their sound. Twelve the gates, a pearl each portal: We haste to join the choir immortal Within the Holy City’s bound. Ear ne’er heard aught like this, Nor heart conceived such bliss. Alleluia! We raise the song, we swell the throng, To praise Thee ages all along.

• [Mat 25:10] Too Late

  Too late? Ah, no, the pulse of life still throbs within thy breast; And while that blessèd spark remains, thy soul may find a rest. The Lord in mercy spares thee yet, His love to thee is great; But do not tempt that love too far, or it may be too late. Refrain Too late, too late, Soon ’twill be too late; Too late, too late, Soon ’twill be too late. He stands, He knocks, He calls, He waits, He tarries at thy heart; Canst thou reject His gracious call? And wilt thou say depart? O, think on what a slender thread this moment hangs thy fate; Arise—admit thy heav’nly Guest, or it may be too late. Refrain Behold His hands, His bleeding side, His crown of thorns behold! And let His arms, extended wide, Thy trembling form enfold. His mercy lengthens out thy days, His love to thee is great; O, do not tempt that love too far, or it may be too late. Refrain

• [Mat 25:10] Wake, Awake, For Night Is Flying

  Wake, awake, for night is flying; The watchmen on the heights are crying: Awake, Jerusalem, at last! Midnight hears the welcome voices And at the thrilling cry rejoices; Come forth, ye virgins, night is past; The Bridegroom comes, awake; Your lamps with gladness take; Alleluia! And for His marriage feast prepare For ye must go and meet Him there. Zion hears the watchmen singing, And all her heart with joy is springing; She wakes, she rises from her gloom; For her Lord comes down all glorious, The strong in grace, in truth victorious. Her Star is risen, her Light is come. Ah come, Thou blessèd One, God’s own belovèd Son: Alleluia! We follow till the halls we see Where Thou hast bid us sup with Thee. Now let all the heavens adore Thee, And saints and angels sing before Thee, With harp and cymbal’s clearest tone; Of one pearl each shining portal, Where we are with the choir immortal Of angels round Thy dazzling throne; Nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath yet attained to hear What there is ours, but we rejoice and sing to Thee Our hymn of joy eternally.

  Wake, O wake! with tidings thrilling The watchmen all the air are filling, Arise, Jerusalem, arise! Midnight strikes! no more delaying, “The hour has come!” we hear them saying, Where are ye all, ye virgins wise? The Bridegroom comes in sight, Raise high your torches bright! Alleluya! The wedding swells loud and strong: Go forth and join the festal throng! Sion hears the watchmen shouting, Her heart leaps up with joy undoubting, She stands and waits with eager eyes; See her Friend from Heaven descending, Adorned with truth and grace unending! Her light burns clear, her star doth rise. Now come, Thou precious Crown, Lord Jesu, God’s own Son! Hosanna! Let us prepare to follow there, Where in Thy supper we may share. Every soul in Thee rejoices, From men and from angelic voices Be glory given to Thee alone!

Grant us to raise to length of days, The triumph-chorus of Thy praise.
