"Keep Your Lamps Trimmed" lyrics - THE HILLBILLY THOMISTS

[Chorus:]
Keep those lamps trimmed, now
Keep those lamps trimmed
Midnight's comin' in
Won't you keep those lamps trimmed?

You do not know the day
And you do not know the hour
Keep watch, stay awake
You do not know the day

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
My soul waits for more than sentinels
The Lord, for He comes with mercy

[Chorus]

Got no time to waste, now
Got no time to waste
Bridegroom's coming soon
Ain't got no time to waste

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
From the depths I cry
Lord, for He comes with mercy

[Chorus 4x]
