The earth shall melt
with fervent heat,
The heavens pass away,
And all mankind
their doom shall meet,
In that last great day.
Oh, that last great day
is coming very soon,
’Tis the judgment day
and the lost shall weep;
’Tis the crowning day,
and the saints shall greet,
In that last great day.
The trump will sound,
the Lord return,
And time no longer be,
The world in judgment
flames consume,
In that last great day.
Oh, that last great day
is coming very soon,
’Tis the judgment day
and the lost shall weep;
’Tis the crowning day,
and the saints shall greet,
In that last great day.
So all who make
this world their God,
Can here no longer stay;
Their fondest hopes
will all have fled,
In that last great day.
Oh, that last great day
is coming very soon,
’Tis the judgment day
and the lost shall weep;
’Tis the crowning day,
and the saints shall greet,
In that last great day.
The quick and dead
o’er land and sea
Will leave their mortal clay,
And put on immortality,
In that last great day.
Oh, that last great day
is coming very soon,
’Tis the judgment day
and the lost shall weep;
’Tis the crowning day,
and the saints shall greet,
In that last great day.
The church of God
no more shall need
This poor terrestrial home,
For she shall dwell
with Christ, her head,
At the great white throne.
Oh, that last great day
is coming very soon,
’Tis the judgment day
and the lost shall weep;
’Tis the crowning day,
and the saints shall greet,
In that last great day.
