SS&S 165  Our lamps are trimmed and burning

1. Our lamps are trimmed and burning,

Our robes are white and clean,

We've tarried for the Bridegroom,

Oh, may we enter in?

We know we've nothing worthy

That we can call our own:

The light, the oil, the robes we wear,

All come from Him alone.

 

Behold, the Bridegroom cometh

And all may enter in,

Whose lamps are trimmed and burning;,!

Whose robes are white and clean.

 

2. Go forth, go forth to meet Him !

The way is open now,

All lighted with the glory

That's streaming from His brow

Accept the invitation,

Beyond deserving kind;

Make no delay, but take your lamps,

And joy eternal find.

3vWe see the marriage splendour

Within the open door;

We know that those who enter

Are blest for evermore.

We see He is more lovely

Than all the sons of men,

But still we know the door, once shut,

Will never ope again.
