Lyrics 1 When Jesus comes to reward His servants, Whether it be noon or night, Faithful to Him will He find us watching, With our lamps all trimmed and bright? Refrain: O can we say we are ready, brother? Ready for the soul’s bright home? Say, will He find you and me still watching, Waiting, watching when the Lord shall come? 2 If, at the dawn of the early morning, He shall call us one by one, When to the Lord we restore our talents, Will He answer you, "Well done?" [Refrain] 3 Have we been true to the trust He left us? Do we seek to do our best? If in our hearts there is naught condemns us, We shall have a glorious rest. [Refrain] 4 Blessed are those whom the Lord finds watching, In His glory they shall share; If He shall come at the dawn or midnight, Will He find us watching there? [Refrain]
