注釋
“弟兄們，你們卻不在黑暗裏，叫那日子臨到你們像賊一樣。你們都是光明之子，都是白晝之子，我們不是屬黑夜的，也不是屬幽暗的。所以我們不要睡覺，像別人一樣，總要儆醒謹守。因為睡了的人是在夜間睡，醉了的人是在夜間醉。但我們既然屬乎白晝，就應當謹守，把信和愛當作護心鏡遮胸，把得救的盼望當作頭盔戴上。因為神不是預定我們受刑，乃是預定我們借著我們主耶穌基督得救。” 【帖撒羅尼迦前書 5:4-9】看門的人就是那些在基督徒中督促信徒們在這些方面儆醒的人，他們督促信徒們要做好准備，以在主到來時對自己的行為有所交代。

Be alert! Don't be numb!
For you don't know when the time will come
It's like a man taking a trip
And giving his servants some stewardship
And tells the one at the door
To keep watch. That is his chore.
In evening or midnight, be ready, he warns
Or when the cock crows, when the day dawns
Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping
Which in the end will lead to you weeping
And this I say to you and to all
Watch! Stay alert! Or else you may fall.
For you don't know when the time will come

Or when the cock crows, when the day dawns
Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping
Which in the end will lead to you weeping
And this I say to you and to all
Watch! Stay alert! Or else you may fall.
