Watch!
(From Winslow's, "Readiness for the Lord's Coming")
Our Lord has set you upon this holy work
of watchfulness: "What I say unto you, I
say unto all, Watch."
Believer in Jesus! keep well trimmed, brightly
burning, and uplifted high, the lamp of a true,
holy, undimmed profession of Christ.
Watch against the world, it is seductive;
Watch against the creature, it is ensnaring;
Watch against Satan, he is subtle;
Watch even against lawful things, they may
be unnecessary;
Watch against your own heart; for it is more
sinful, treacherous, and dangerous than all.
