Verse 1 Rise, my soul, to watch and pray; From your sleep awaken! Be not by the evil day Unawares o'ertaken. For the foe, Well we know, Is a harvest reaping While the saints are sleeping.

Verse 2 Watch! Let not the wicked world With its lies defeat you Lest with bold deceptions hurled It betray and cheat you. Watch and see Lest there be Faithless friends to charm you Who but seek to harm you.

Verse 3 Watch against yourself, my soul, Lest with grace you trifle; Let not self your thoughts control Nor God's mercy stifle. Pride and sin Lurk within, All your hopes to shatter; Heed not when they flatter.

Verse 4 (Please Rise): But while watching also pray To the Lord unceasing. God protects you day by day, Strength and faith increasing. So that still Mind and will Shall unite to serve him And forever love him.
