Is Your Lamp Burning?

1Are you Christ's light-bearer? Of his joy a sharer? Is this dark world fair, or For your cheering ray? Is your beacon lighting, More and more each day?

RefrainAre you watching day by day? Lord's returning! Are you watching day by day?

2Is your heart warm, glowing, With his love overflowing, And his goodness showing More and more each day? Are you pressing onward With his radiance resplendent?

3Keep your altar burning, Wait your Lord's returning, With your love-light burning, Drawshim ever near; With his radiance resplendent Shall your soul be brightened.

4Are you watching, watching For your souls benighted To the land of perfect day? Faith that ne'er shall wane, Light be blended When his glory shall appear.

5In the safe and narrow-way? O brother! is your lamp trimmed and burning? Is the world made brighter by Its cheering ray?
