Ye Servants of the Lord
{ Ye Servants of the Lord! VIGIL-Fr. Giovanni Paisiello FERGUSON-George Kingsley LABAN-Lowell Mason LISBON-Daniel Read NARENZA-Koln Gesangbuch, 1619 (arr. Rev. William Henry Havergal) POTSDAM-Johann Sebastian Bach Ye Servants of the Lord! } Ye servants of the Lord! Each in his office wait, Observant of the heavenly word, And watchful at his gate. Let all your lamps be bright, And trim the golden flame; Gird up your loins as in his sight, For awful is his name. Watch, 't is your Lord's command; And while we speak he's near; Mark the first signal of his hand, And ready all appear. 4 Oh, happy servant he, In such a posture found! He shall his Lord with rapture see, And be with honor crowned. |
