The Wondrous Day of Our God

Soon come the great tribulations and wars that will rage and not cease
'Til the God of all nations shall bring in the day of peace.
The sky will be darkened, the heavens will shake,
The stars will be falling, the dead shall awake.

When the day of our God shall come to pass,
The skies shall ring out with the angels' song.
The last shall be first and the first shall be last
When the day of our God comes, the wondrous day of our God.

Short in the time of your sorrow, and great are the joys God has planned
To bring you tomorrow into the Promised Land,
Where justice will flourish, and peace will abound,
And mercy will flourish, the lost shall be found.

When the day of our God shall come to pass,
The skies shall ring out with the angels' song.
The last shall be first and the first shall be last
When the day of our God comes, the wondrous day of our God.

Cease now your sorrow and weeping. Stand firm, your deliverance is near,
For God is not sleeping; stand firm and do not fear.
Behold your salvation is now close at hand,
The hope of each nation, the prayer of each land.

When the day of our God shall come to pass,
The skies shall ring out with the angels' song.
The last shall be first and the first shall be last
When the day of our God comes, the wondrous day of our God.

Heed now the words of my warning, and look for the signs God has sent,
For soon comes the morning; the night is now nearly spent.
You who are greedy, you who rob from the poor,
You who pray on the needy, you who hunger for more,

You would trample the helpless, you would trample the small,
You would make them the outcasts, you would banish them all.
You who love power and glory and fame,
You will not know the hour when the Lord calls your name.
Your grapes turn all sour, your lands tumble down.
You will not know the hour when it all turns around.

When the day of our God shall come to pass,
The skies shall ring out with the angels' song.
The last shall be first and the first shall be last
When the day of our God comes, the wondrous, terrible thunderous, miracle wondrous day of our God,
The wondrous day of our God.
