178 ~ In the Sun, and Moon, and Stars
1
In the sun, and moon, and stars, Signs and wonders have appeared; Earth has groaned with bloody wars, And the hearts of men have feared.
2
Soon shall ocean’s hoary deep, Tossed with stronger tempests, rise; Darker storms the mountain sweep, Fiercer lightning rend the skies.
3
Dread alarms shall shake the proud, Pale amazement, restless fear; And, amid the thunder-cloud, Shall the Judge of men appear.
4
But, though from His awful face, Heaven shall fade, and earth shall fly, Fear not, ye, His chosen race, Your redemption draweth nigh.
