Come and join Me in the long night’s toil The Spirit will provide the midnight oil Awake and open wide, your heart’s closed door “The harvest is ready, please help Me,” I implore
My head is drenched with the dew of the long night The work will be hard, but My yoke is light Your spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak The earth belongs to the humble and the meek
My oil is precious, it will cost you all It’s provided for those who answer My call If you hear My voice, sweet fellowship we’ll share As we burn the midnight oil in the cool night’s air

Song of Solomon 5:2-6 – “I slept but my heart was awake. Listen! My beloved is knocking: ‘Open to me, my sister, my darling, my dove, my flawless one. My head is drenched with dew, my hair with the dampness of the night.’
3 I have taken off my robe—must I put it on again? I have washed my feet—must I soil them again?
4 My beloved thrust his hand through the latch-opening; my heart began to pound for him. 5 I arose to open for my beloved, and my hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with flowing myrrh, on the handles of the bolt. 6 I opened for my beloved, but my beloved had left; he was gone. My heart sank at his departure. I looked for him but did not find him. I called him but he did not answer.”
Revelation 3:19-20 – “Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent. 20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.”
