Damit wir in der Ewigkeit
Sammt allen Engeln vor Ihm stehen.
[Advent Hymn. III.]
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
Eph. v. 14.

Awake! thou careless world, awake thee!
’Twill come, for so has Heaven decreed;
To prayer and watchfulness betake thee
’Twill come, for what our Lord hath spoken
