When Jesus comes to reward His servants Hymn YORUBA Gba Jesu de lati fere fun wa YORUBA Hymn

ENGLISH LYRICS: When Jesus comes to reward His servants

Behold I come quickly and my reward is with me. Rev.22:12

1.  When Jesus comes to reward His servants,
    Whether it be noon or night,
    Faithful to Him, will He find us watching,
    With our lamps all trimmed and bright?

    O can we say we are ready, brother,
    Ready for the soul's bright home?
    Say, will He find you and me still watching
    Waiting, waiting when the Lord shall come?

2. If, at the dawn of the early morning,
    He shall call us one by one,
    When to the Lord we restore our talents,
    Will He answer thee-Well done?

3. Have we been true to the trust He left us?
    Do we seek to do our best?
    If in our hearts there is naught condemns us,
    We shall have a glorious rest.

4. Blessed are those whom the Lord finds watching,
    In His glory they shall share;
    If He shall come at the dawn or midnight,
    Will He find us watching there?
Amen.
