C.M.S 34 H.C 66 P.M (FE 200) 
“And that, knowing the time, that now it is high 
time to wake out of sleep" - Rom. 3:11



1.  HARK, ‘tis the watchman’s cry 

     Wake, brethren. wake

     Jesus himself is nigh

     Wake brethren, wake

     Sleep is for Sons of night 

     Ye are children of the light 

     Yours is the glory bright 

     Wake, brethren, wake.


2.  Call to each wakening band 

     Watch brethren, watch; 

     Clear is our Lord‘s command 

     Watch, brethren, watch;

     Be ye as men that wait 

     Always at their master’s gate 

     Even though He tarry late 

     Watch brethren, watch.


3.  Heed we the steward‘s call 

     Work, brethren, work 

     There's room enough for all 

     work brethren work

     This Vineyard of the Lord 

     Constant labour will afford 

     He will your work reward 

     Work, brethren, work.


4.  Hear we the Shepherd's Voice 

     Pray brethren pray 

     Would ye His heart rejoice 

     Pray, brethren pray

     Sin calls for ceaseless fear 

     Weakness needs the strong one near 

     Long as ye struggle here

     Pray brethren pray.


5.  Sound now the final chord

     Praise brethren, praise,

     Thrice Holy is the Lord

     Praise, brethren, praise,

     What more befits the tongues

     Soon to join the Angels' songs?

     While'st heaven the note prolongs

     Praise, brethren, Praise.  Amen
