Foolish Virgins
 
1. They have received the present truth;
They are not hypocrites;
They have a high regard for truth;
Take lightly upon sin. 
 
2. They give a peace and safety cry;
Didn't fall upon the Rock;
They have not learned yet how to trust;
They say, "We're all the same." 
 
3. They're drawn to lovers of the truth;
They advocate the truth;
But in the face of oppression;
Such character is fig leaves. 
 
4. It was midnight when the cry's heard: 
"Behold, the Bridegroom comes!" 
They had no oil inside their lamps;
The wise refused to give. 
 
5. Let us now wait, and watch and pray;
Let us keep on asking;
Let's keep on seeking and knocking;
We'll meet the coming King.
