My Lamp Ready – v2
Oh to be able to say
to proclaim before Jesus
boldly, with confidence,
that my heart was prepared
my lamp ready, filled, burning
for the return of my Master
Living in worship
living out my witness
untroubled by the world
at peace ever in my spirit
anxiously waiting, ready
awake in that night
Christ, the bridegroom to return
His coming in secret
only known, revealed,
in God’s timing alone
unknown to you and me;
yet we know because he promised
We must be faithful
to see eternity, to be with our Master
walking the path of our Savior
work to be done, here, now
to prepare for our Master
when he comes in Glory
