Behold, thy day is come;
The righteous Judge is near;
And sinners trembling at their doom,
Shall soon the sentence hear.
Angels in bright attire,
Conduct him through the skies;
Darkness and tempests, smoke and fire,
Attend his as he flies.
How awful is the sight,
How loud the thunders roar;
The sun forbears to give its light,
And starts are seen no more.
The whole creation groans,
But saints arise and sing;
They are the ransomed of the Lord,
And he their God and King.
