Lyrics from A Collection of Sacred Hymns for the Use of the Latter Day Saints, 1844
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 heav'nly 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 the 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 their saints receive,
Above yon angel pow'rs
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 heav'ns bow,
Be found as, Lord, thou find'st us now.
