About this sermon

Washeni taa | Kanyakla Int'l (595 – Let Every Lamp Be Burning) This song captures the parable of the 10 virgins of Mathew 25. It was written around the time of the proclamation "Behold the Bride groom cometh". It is a call for a sleeping church to wake and prepare for her Christ returneth. The song was written by F. E. Belden and appears in the SDAH 595. Erick Omondi, one of the members of Kanyakla, translated it into this version of Swahili in 2014. (595 – Let Every Lamp Be Burning) 1 Let every lamp be burning bright, The darkest hour is nearing; The darkest hour of earth’s long night, Before the Lord’s appearing. Refrain Then trim your lamps, my brethren dear, Then trim your lamps with godly fear; The Master’s coming draweth near, Let every lamp be burning. 2 Though thousands calmly slumber on, The last great message spurning, We’ll rest our living faith upon His promise of returning. 3 His word our lamp, His truth our guide, We cannot be mistaken; Though dangers rise on every side, We shall not be forsaken. 4 Then let good works with faith appear, To help the world around us; Obedience bring the blessing near When faith has firmly bound us. ➤ SUBSCRIBE http://www.youtube.com/c/2CBNTVChannel ➤ FACEBOOK https://web.facebook.com/2CBN-TV-110365990677456 ➤ TWITTER https://twitter.com/2cbninfo For any information and inquiries kindly contact; 2cbninfo@gmail.com
