Stand The Omnipotent Decree!
Jehovah’s Will Be Done!
Nature’s End We Wait To See,
And Hear Her Final Groan;
Let This Earth Dissolve, And Blend
In Death The Wicked And The Just,
Let Those Ponderous Orbs Descend,
And Grind Us Into Dust.
Rests Secure The Righteous Man!
At His Redeemer’s Beck,
Sure To Emerge, And Rise Again,
And Mount Above The Wreck;
Lo! The Heavenly Spirit Towers,
Like Flame, O’er Nature’s Funeral Pyre,
Triumphs In Immortal Powers,
And Claps His Wings Of Fire!
Nothing Hath The Just To Lose
By Worlds On Worlds Destroyed;
Far Beneath His Feet He Views,
With Smiles, The Flaming Void;
Sees The Universe Renewed,
The Grand Millennial Reign Begun;
Shouts, With All The Sons Of God,
Around The Eternal Throne.
Resting In This Glorious Hope
To Be At Last Restored,
Yield We Now Our Bodies Up
To Earthquake, Plague, Or Sword;
Listening For The Call Divine,
The Latest Trumpet Of The Seven,
Soon Our Soul And Dust Shall Join,
And Both Fly Up To Heaven.
