Each setting sun draws near the day

1

Each setting sun draws near the dayWhen, at Jehovah's word,The heavens like smoke shall pass away,Revealing Christ our Lord.

2

To speak our doom he will descend,Beheld by every eye;Life or destruction shall attendThose Judgments from on high.

3

Then weigh thyself with anxious care,And seek a throne of grace;Thy soul his Spirit can prepareTo stand before his face.
