We Know Not the Hour

604 – We Know Not the Hour

Major Key: B Flat

1
We know not the hour of the Master’s appearing;
Yet signs all foretell that the moment is nearing
When He shall return ’tis a promise most cheering
But we know not the hour.

CHORUS:
He will come (He will come), let us watch and be ready;
He will come (He will come), hallelujah! hallelujah!
He will come in the clouds of His Father’s bright glory–
But we know not the hour.

2
There’s light for the wise who are seeking salvation;
There’s truth in the book of the Lord’s revelation;
Each prophecy points to the great comsummation
But we know not the hour.

3
We’ll watch and we’ll pray, with our lamps trimmed and burning;
We’ll work and we’ll wait till the Master’s returning;
We’ll sing and rejoice, every omen discerning
But we know not the hour.

173 – Hatujui Saa
“We Know Not The Hour”

1
Hatujui sa-a ya kuja kwa Bwana,
Lakini dalili zasema karibu,
Atakaporudi, -lakini kwa kweli,
Hatujui sa-a.

Chorus
Atakuja, kwa vile tukeshe;
Atakuja Mwokozi, Aleluya!
Atakuja kwa fahari ya Baba yake,
-Hatujui saa.

2
Pana nuru kwao wapendao haki,
Pana kweli katika Chuo Cha Mungu;
Unabii hufundisha kuja kwake,
-Hatujui saa.

3
Tutakesha tutaomba daima,
Tutafanya kazi mpaka akija;
Tutaimba na tutasoma ishara,
-Hatujui saa.
