The Psalter ‎#139

139. The Eternal Judgment

1 The mighty God, the Lord,
Has spoken unto all;
From rising to the setting sun
The nations hear His call.

2 From Zion, His abode
Where perfect beauty dwells,
The Lord His glory has displayed
In brightness that excels.

3 Our God shall surely come,
Nor silence shall He keep;
Devouring fire shall herald Him,
About Him storms shall sweep.

4 Then to the heav'ns above
He from His throne shall call,
The earth His kingly voice shall hear
He is the Judge of all.

5 Let all my chosen saints
Before Me gathered be,
Those that by sacrifice have sealed
Their promise unto Me.

6 Then shall the heavens declare
His righteousness abroad,
Because the Lord Himself is Judge,
Yea, none is Judge, but God.
