Keep Your Lamps Trimmed and Burning

Lyrics

(African American Spiritual)

1. Keep your lamps trimmed and burning,
keep your lamps trimmed and burning,
keep your lamps trimmed and burning,
the time is drawing nigh.

Refrain
Children, don’t grow weary,
children, don’t grow weary,
children, don’t grow weary,
‘Til your work is done.

2. Christian, journey soon be over,
Christian, journey soon be over,
Christian, journey soon be over,
for the time is drawing nigh. Refrain
