The Last Great Day Is Drawing Nigh

The last great day is draw­ing nigh

When Christ

the Judge

shall come

With all the ar­mies of the sky

To call His child­ren home.

Behold! the venge­ful day of God:

Destruction flies around

The mount­ains trem­ble at His nod

His trum­pet shakes the ground.

Sinners with trem­bling leave the tomb

At His su­preme com­mand;

Behold! the day of God is come!

How will the sin­ner stand?

All who against the liv­ing God

Continue to re­bel

Must fall be­neath His venge­ful rod

And bear the pains of hell.

But those who in His name be­lieve

And hum­bly watch and pray

Shall each a star­ry crown re­ceive

And reign in end­less day.
