There Is No Tomorrow

Author: Eleanor W. Long Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13166 First Line: There were sleeping virgins lying Refrain First Line: Awake! awake! Lyrics: 1 There were sleeping virgins lying Just outside the festal door; And they murmured in their dreaming, Time enough, full time, and more, But the cry rang, "Lo, the Bridegroom Cometh quickly to the feast-room! Go to meet Him—Go!" Refrain: Awake! awake! Turn from sin, turn from sorrow Today! today! For there is no tomorrow! Your lamps are gone out, And no oil can you borrow— Prepare to meet thy God! 2 Then they rose and hastened forward, From the thrall of dreams released; Those with burning lamps to enter With the Bridegroom to the feast; But the others stood benighted, With their empty lamps unlighted— And the doorway shut. [Refrain] 3 Rouse ye from your sleep, O dreamers, While the door stands open wide, Fill your lamps, and trim them, light them— You can have no light beside. Then into the realms immortal You shall enter thro’ the portal, Ere the door is shut. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [There were sleeping virgins lying]
