Gold Tried in the Fire ‎#89

89. Watch and Pray

1 Saviour lead us, keep us ever,
From thee may we never stray;
From the pow’r of sin deliver,
Help us Lord to watch and pray.

Chorus:
Watch, O watch,
Endeav’rer watch!
Pray, O pray,
Endeav’rer pray!
Speak and sing for Christ our King,
Shouting victory each day.

2 If we e’er would turn the sinners,
To the blessed, holy way;
If of souls we would be winners,
We must ever watch and pray. [Chorus]

3 In the vineyard we would labor,
And thy holy word obey;
Yet, with all our truest efforts,
We must daily watch and pray. [Chorus]
