The Midnight Cry

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Hymnal: The Ark of Praise #52 (1882) Hymnal Title: The Ark of Praise First Line: Slumber not, slumber not Lyrics: 1 Slumber not, slumber not, for the time flies apace,— The time for the Bridegroom is near; Let us watch, let us wait, with a firm, trusting heart, Be ready the summons to hear. O provide for our lamps, let our vessels be filled With grace he will freely supply; Then, with rapture complete, our beloved we shall meet, When midnight shall echo the cry. Refrain: Slumber not, slumber not, for the time flies apace,— The time for the Bridegroom is near; Let us watch, let us wait with a firm, trusting heart, Be ready the summons to hear. 2 Slumber not, slumber not, tho' he tarry awhile, Not long will he linger away; He has left his commands to the faithful and wise, Then let us in meekness obey. Yes, the Bridegroom will come to his long-waiting bride, And wipe every tear from her eye; “Go ye forth” may we hear, and with joy, not with fear, When midnight shall echo the cry. [Refrain] 3 Slumber not, slumber not, for the moments are brief; O think of their anguish of heart Who will come, but too late, to the door of the feast, And hear from the Bridegroom, “depart” Let our lamps be well-filled and their lustre be seen When he to the marriage draws nigh, Then our souls will rejoice at the sound of his voice, When midnight shall echo the cry. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Slumber not, slumber not]
