| 1. | Who can tell how soon the Bride may hear the |
| | cry, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| | Hear the shout of triumph ringing in the sky, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| | We can almost see His glory in the sky; |
| | It must be the drawing of that day is nigh. |
| | How our hearts would leap if we should |
| | hear the cry, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| 2. | Who will have their lamps trimmed and |
| | burning bright? |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| | Extra oil have ready should you hear tonight, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| 3. | Who will now be washed by water in the |
| | Word? |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| | Spots and wrinkles cleanse before the shout is |
| | heard, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| 4. | Who will be the counterpart to Christ today? |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| | Ready be to match Him now without delay, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| 5. | Who will now be clothed in linen bright and |
| | pure? |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| | Act of righteousness will make her rapture |
| | sure, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| 6. | Hark! As one the Spirit and the Bride doth say, |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
| | Brothers, sisters, this may be the wedding day! |
| | "Behold, the Bridegroom cometh!" |
