|  | 1. | Christian, seek not yet repose, | 
|  |  | Hear thy gracious Savior say; | 
|  |  | Thou are in the midst of foes: | 
|  |  | Watch and pray. | 
|  | 2. | Principalities and powers, | 
|  |  | Mustering their unseen array, | 
|  |  | Wait for thy unguarded hours: | 
|  |  | Watch and pray. | 
|  | 3. | Gird thy heavenly armor on, | 
|  |  | Wear it ever night and day; | 
|  |  | Ambushed lies the evil one: | 
|  |  | Watch and pray. | 
|  | 4. | Hear the victors who o'ercame, | 
|  |  | Still they mark each warrior's way; | 
|  |  | All with on sweet voice exclaim, | 
|  |  | Watch and pray. | 
|  | 5. | Hear, above all, hear thy Lord, | 
|  |  | Him thou lovest to obey; | 
|  |  | Hide within thy heart His word: | 
|  |  | Watch and pray. | 
|  | 6. | Watch, as if on that alone | 
|  |  | Hung the issue of the day; | 
|  |  | Pray, that help may be sent down: | 
|  |  | Watch and pray. |
