Isaiah 30:25: The solemn day draws nigh, when all
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 9 (1870)
The solemn day draws nigh, when all
The cities of the world shall fall.
The islands flee away.
The Lord, the dread avenging Lord
Shall plead His cause with fire and sword,
And sin for ever slay.
Then shall Thy church superior rise,
A mountain water'd by the skies,
With streams of grace o'erflow'd.
With rivers of pure heavenly peace.
And everlasting righteousness.
And all the life of God.
