603 – Christian, Seek Not Repose

1

Christian, seek not yet repose,

Cast thy dreams of ease away;

Thou are in the midst of foes;

Watch and pray!

2

Gird thy heavenly armor on,

Wear it ever, night and day;

Ambushed lies the evil one;

Watch and pray!

3

Hear the victors who o’ercame;

Still they mark each warrior’s way;

All with one sweet voice exclaim:

“Watch and pray!”

4

Hear, above all, hear thy Lord,

Him thou lovest to obey;

Hide within thy heart His word;

“Watch and pray!”

5

Watch, as if on that alone

Hung the issue of the day;

Pray that help may be send down;

Watch and pray!
