We wait since the day He ascendedHe said He would come againSome think it will be such a long timeSome think they know just whenWe live like there's no tomorrowWe wait with our lamps of oilWe watch for the midnight hourThe day we cease our toil
When the trumpet soundsAnd the bridegroom comesThe weddings gonna be so royalSo we gotta keep stayin' loyal'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soilWhen we burn the midnight oilBurn the midnight oil
Will our lamps be full at Parousia'The weddings gonna be so royalSo we gotta keep stayin' loyal'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soilWhen we burn the midnight oilWhen we burn the midnight oil
Or you burn itYou better check your oilOh, come on
When the bridegroom comesWe will hear the calmThe weddings gonna be so royalSo we gotta keep stayin' loyal'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soilWhen we burn the midnight oil
Weddings gonna be so royalSo we gotta keep staying loyal'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soilWhen we burn the midnight oilBurn the midnight oil
