"But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only." - Matt. 24:36.
We know not the hour when the Lord shall ap-pear, Yet oft-en the mo-ment seems draw-ing near;
They're look-ing for one who afar seek-ing all of us here, There's faith in the Book of Di-vine lov-ing grace;
We walk and we toil in the way he has trod, But we know not the hour when we'll walk with our God.
2
They say he shall re-turn—tis a prom-ise most clear they give,
But here they've been told, Yet still wait and still hope, ev-er-y day we will come near.
C
Chorus
CHORUS:
We know not the hour, Let us watch and be ready; He will come, let us be pre-pared; He will come,
In an hour when we think not, that is what the Sav-iour said, we know not the hour; he will come.
