Midnight Oil |
| We wait since the day He ascended |
| He said He would come again |
| Some think it will be such a long time |
| Some think they know just when |
| We live like there’s no tomorrow |
| We wait with our lamps of oil |
| We watch for the midnight hour |
| The day we cease our toil |
| When the trumpet sounds |
| And the bridegroom comes |
| The weddings gonna be so royal |
| So we gotta keep staying loyal |
| Cause our feet are gonna leave this soil |
| When we burn the midnight oil |
| Burn the midnight oil |
| Some wait from the top of the mountain |
| Away from the world below |
| Some work while there’s still a harvest |
| No rest when there’s seed to sow |
| We go out to wait for the bridegroom |
| Some bring oil of readiness |
| Some lamps will be burned out waiting |
| Left out in there emptyness |
| Will our lamps be full at parousia? |
| When the bridegroom comes will hear the call |
