Let all Zion’s watchmen arise

And answer their own calls

Let them, their own combination take

Themselves from the Lord’s mouth.

It’s a very great work indeed

For which we need watchmen

It’s a burden on angel’s heart

And it fill the Lord’s hands.

They watch over one soul, for whom

The Lord left His glory

A soul who will have to be in

Eternal joy or loss.

So, they also may see Jesus

As their Lord and Saviour

In watching their footsteps daily

Their hearts are kept for Him.
