Day of Wonders
Day of judgment, day of wonders!
1
Day of judgment, day of wonders!Hark! the trumpet's awful sound,Louder than a thousand thunders,shakes the vast creation round!How the summonswill the sinner's heart confound!
2
See the judge, our nature wearing,Clothed in majesty divine!You who long for his appearing,Then shall say “This God is mine!”Gracious Savior,Own me in that day for thine!
3
At his call the dead awaken,Rise to life from earth and sea;All the powers of nature shakenBy his looks prepare to flee.Careless sinner,What will then become of thee?
4
But to those who have confessed,Loved and served the Lord below,He will say, “come near, ye blessed,See the kingdom I bestow,You forever,Shall my love and glory know.
