THE DAY OF THE LORD

The day is fast approaching
soon His army will lay waste,
burning all that’s weed and stubble
blanched will be every face.

The Lor will lead on His mighty steed
no one knows the time or day,
the earth will shake and tremble
darkness will hold the light at bay.

Who can bear that day so terrible
as His justice comes to pass,
it’s not too late for us to change
make amends, repent and fast.

For the Lord is slow to anger
rich in kindness, will relent,
if we change our hardened hearts
ask forgiveness, and repent.
