Sons and daughters of God, why do you tarry?
Preoccupied with things that are temporary
Discern the way and fix your destiny
Set your heart and mind upon eternity
The signs of the time unfold every day
With unceasing strife, famine and calamity
Instilling distress and fear in the unwary
Mental agitation, anguish and dismay
Fortify your spiritual foundation by earnest study
Ask for wisdom to understand the prophecy
Guard yourself against the wiles of the enemy
And his subtle deception through his sophistry
Be sober, be vigilant, keep watch and pray
Turn away from evil, and strive to be holy
Trials will test your faith but hold on firmly
God will give you great power and victory
