Midnight Oil

We wait since the day He ascended

He said He would come again

Some think it will be such a long time

Some think they know just when

We live like there's no tomorrow

We wait with our lamps of oil

We watch for the midnight hour

The day we cease our toilWhen the trumpet sounds

And the bridegroom comes

The weddings gonna be so royal

So we gotta keep stayin' loyal

'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soil

When we burn the midnight oil

Burn the midnight oilSome wait from the top of the mountain

Away from the world below

Some work while there's still a harvest

No rest when there's seed to sow

We go out to wait for the bridegroom

Some bring oil of readiness

Some lamps will be burned out waiting

Left out in there emptinessWill our lamps be full at Parousia?

The weddings gonna be so royal

So we gotta keep stayin' loyal

'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soil

When we burn the midnight oil

When we burn the midnight oilOr you burn it

You better check your oil

Oh, come onWhen the bridegroom comes

We will hear the calm

The weddings gonna be so royal

So we gotta keep stayin' loyal

'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soil

When we burn the midnight oilWeddings gonna be so royal

So we gotta keep staying loyal

'Cause our feet are gonna leave this soil

When we burn the midnight oil

Burn the midnight oil
