By A Collection of Hymns

      4-6s & 2-8s.
      1 YE virgin souls, arise,
      With all the dead awake
      Unto salvation wise,
      Oil in your vessels take;
      Upstarting at the midnight cry,
      "Behold the heavenly Bridegroom nigh!"

      2 He comes, he comes, to call
      The nations to his bar,
      And raise to glory all
      Who fit for glory are;
      Made ready for your full reward,
      Go forth with joy to meet your Lord.

      3 Go, meet him in the sky,
      Your everlasting friend;
      Your Head to glorify,
      With all his saints ascend;
      Ye pure in heart, obtain the grace
      To see, without a veil, his face!

      4 Ye that have here received
      The unction from above,
      And in his Spirit lived,
      Obedient to his love,
      Jesus shall claim you for his bride:
      Rejoice with all the sanctified!

      5 The everlasting doors
      Shall soon the saints receive,
      Above yon angel powers
      In glorious joy to live;
      Far from a world of grief and sin,
      With God eternally shut in.

      6 Then let us wait to hear
      The trumpet's welcome sound;
      To see our Lord appear,
      Watching let us be found;
      When Jesus doth the heavens bow,
      Be found - as, Lord, thou find'st us now!
