Keep Watching

 

 

To closely follow the Shepherd
We must always watch and pray,
And meditate upon His Word
As we walk with Him each day.
Satan comes as a roaring lion,
Seeking whom he may devour—
Sometimes as an angel of light,
Leading souls into the mire…
Keep Watching.

Watch lest ye yield to temptation
And begin to go astray,
Losing sight of your dear Shepherd,
And stumbling along the way.
In the flesh, we are just so weak,
Yet God’s Spirit dwells within,
And if we’ll pray and keep watching,
We’ll never fall into sin…
Keep Watching.

Jesus Christ is coming again…
Soon we’ll meet Him in the air;
Let us be strong and stand fast, friend,
Till we join our Saviour there.
No man knows the day or hour,
But it’s in the Father’s plan,
And this one thing we know for sure…
Our Lord is coming again…
Keep Watching.

 

Jesus said: “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation:
the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
“Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of
the house cometh…” “And what I say unto you, I say to all, Watch.”
(Lu 21:36; Mk 13:35, 37)
