As Dez Virgens
Adriane Medeiros
The Ten Virgins
There were ten virgins, five were wild and five were wise
They went to meet the groom
The wild virgins didn’t bring extra oil
To find the bridegroom
And while the groom was delayed, they fell into a deep sleep
But at midnight, a voice shouted out
Get ready, oh! Ten virgins, the groom is coming now!
The wise ones got up and lit their lamps
The wild ones worried, they had no oil left
Give us some of your oil
Our lamps have gone out
The wise ones replied
If we give, there won’t be enough
Run to the market, you can buy some there
They bought the oil and hurried to knock on the door
But the door was shut and the groom said to them
You can’t enter my party!
So it will be with the return of the Son of God
Just like the ten virgins, it will happen
Five went up and five stayed behind
Whoever doesn’t have a reserve in heaven won’t get in
The difference between the virgins that existed
Wasn’t the clothes, nor the lamp
It wasn’t the oil because they all had some
But it was the reserve, five had it and five didn’t
Set aside some time, my brother, for prayer
Set aside some time for consecration
Set aside some time to praise and worship
Don’t let the Spirit’s lamp go out
Because the rapture will happen very soon
The wise ones got up and lit their lamps
The wild ones worried, they had no oil left
Give us some of your oil
Our lamps have gone out
The wise ones replied
If we give, there won’t be enough
Run to the market, you can buy some there
They bought the oil and hurried to knock on the door
But the door was shut and the groom said to them
You can’t enter my party!
So it will be with the return of the Son of God
Just like the ten virgins, it will happen
Five went up and five stayed behind
Whoever doesn’t have a reserve in heaven won’t get in
The difference between the virgins that existed
Wasn’t the clothes, nor the lamp
It wasn’t the oil because they all had some
But it was the reserve, five had it and five didn’t
Set aside some time, my brother, for prayer
Set aside some time for consecration
Set aside some time to praise and worship
Don’t let the Spirit’s lamp go out
Because the rapture will happen very soon
