1. In the place Gethsemane,
Jesus Christ so fair
Spoke to His disciples there,
Tarry here and watch with me.
Falling on his loving face,
Praying fervently;
His Father’s will to offer grace;
Suff’ring willingly.
2. Cometh then, He finds asleep
Those he left to spare
Agony and pain so rare
Of his gift, that they may reap.
Could’st thou not one hour stay
Watchful as the meek?
Thy spirit, willing, longs to pray
For the flesh so weak.
3. Time would meet Eternity
As He prayed to God.
Angels sing of glory, laud,
Honor born of charity.
Drinking of the bitter cup;
Father’s will be done.
Determined he would lift us up;
Thus did God’s own son.
4. Now I’m asked to watch and pray,
Offer all my heart.
I will choose the better part,
That I might abide the day.
Father help my heart to know;
Help my eyes to see;
Unveil and guide my wand ’ring soul
T’ward Eternity
