As drowsy earth is dreaming still

1

As drowsy earth is dreaming stillOf coming good and golden days,An angel voice the heavens thrill:Fear God, ye people, give him praise;

2

The long-appointed Judgment hourIs come at last; worship ye himWho by his own almighty powerMade heaven, earth, sea, and gushing stream.

3

Another cry the earth doth greet,The second angel's voice divine:Great Babel's fall is now complete;Nations are drunken with her wine.

4

Now the third angel's voice resounds,A final, fearful, warning voiceAgainst false worship; and propoundsGod's word and worship for men's choice.

5

Here saints in patience waiting stand,Through faith obedient to God's will,Fulfilling each divine commandTill called to stand on Zion's hill.
