1  We have oil in our lamps — we are burning!

       We have oil in our lamps today!

    To the spirit, O Lord, keep us turning,

       Keep us turning, turning all the way!

 2  But our vessels need oil for Thy coming;

       We must gain a reserve supply.

    So our vessels we give for the filling

       That our lamps may never, never die.

 3  Then we'll burn till the Lord comes to meet us,

       Then we'll burn till He comes that day.

    Then we'll go in with Him to the wedding

       And be brightly burning all the way.
