Few there be that shall enter in;
Lest we stray from the narrow way,
Help us ever to watch and pray.

Watch and pray, watch and pray,
Or the tempter will lead astray;
Watch and pray, watch and pray,
You shall overcome if you watch and pray.

Satan seeks whom he may devour;
You shall conquer, resist the wrong,
Standing fast in the Lord be strong. [Refrain]
3 Watch and pray lest the care and toil
Of this life should your purpose foil;
Lest you miss the eternal prize,
For the faithful in paradise. [Refrain]

For His chosen, to take them home;
Those who walk in His righteousness
Shall abide in supernal bliss. [Refrain] Topics: Watchfulness Scripture: 1 Peter 4:7 Tune Title: [There's a way that is free from sin]
