C              Am           F          G
The Lord is coming as a thief;
C                     Am F            G
We need more oil every day
            F                                      G
With lamps well-trimmed and fires burning
C                Am
To be qualified
F                                 G
To be stolen by the Lord.

Chorus:
                    C                   Am
Every "today" that we have
    F                              G
Is truly the Lord's grace;
                    C                Am
As long as we have today
              F                                    G
And as long as we still have breath,
                     C           Am
We should love the Lord
         F          G
And His appearing,
     C                       Am
Await the Lord's coming,
          F                                     G           C
And always take it as an encouragement.

Lord, we choose to be vitalized
And overcome all that replaces Christ
We'll let the world go and drop all things
Waiting with all our heart,
Watching for Your coming.

Make us overcomers, as the high peak,
The center, the strengthening, the uplifting,
The enriching, and reality of the church, the
Holy city,
Lord, to bring You back!
