As virgins we must be wise and pure

Verse 1
1 As virgins we must be wise and pure
So single to You, Lord to grow and mature.
We’re going forth to meet You
our Bridegroom so sweet.
Our touch with You, Jesus,
must be intimate.
chorus
Lord, I love You above all,
Watching hourly lest I fall.
We would buy the oil today.
Lord, prepare us; Oh, get us ready!
Verse 2
Not only my lamp, Lord, but my vessel too,
Redeeming the time to be filled up with You.
I'm going forth to meet You,
My Bridegroom so dear.
I know then at midnight You'll soon,
Lord, appear.
Verse 3
Lord, make us ready at any cost
Or else at Your coming
We'll suffer great loss.
We don't want to say,
Lord, our lamp's going out.
Then it is too late when we
hear the great shout.
