Author: C. Wesley Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:10 Lyrics: 1 Stand, th' Omnipotent decree, Jehovah's will be done! Nature's end we wait to see, And hear her final groan. Let this earth dissolve, and blend In death the wicked and the just; Let those pond'rous orbs descend, And grind us into dust. 2 Rests secure the righteous man; At his Redeemer's beck, Sure t' emerge and rise again, And mount above the wreck; Lo! the heavenly spirit towers Like flames o'er nature's funeral pyre; Triumphs in immortal powers, And claps his wings of fire. 3 Nothing that the just to lose By worlds on worlds destroyed; Far beneath his feet he views, With smiles, the flaming void; Sees this universe renewed-- The grand millennial reign begun; Shouts, with all the sons of God, Around the eternal throne. 4 Resting in this glorious hope, To be at last restored, Yield we now our bodies up To earthquake, plague, or sword; Listening for the call divine, The latest trumpet of the seven, Soon our soul and form shall join, And both fly up to heaven.

Before the throne of God above

Author: Charitie L. De Chenez (1841-1923) Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:5 Lyrics: 1 Before the throne of God above I have a strong, a perfect plea, a great High Priest, whose name is Love, who ever lives and pleads for me. My name is graven on his hands, my name is written on his heart: I know that while in heaven he stands no tongue can bid me thence depart. 2 When Satan tempts me to despair, and tells me of the guilt within, upward I look, and see him there who made an end of all my sin. Because the sinless Saviour died, my sinful soul is counted free; for God the just is satisfied to look on him and pardon me. 3 Behold him there! the risen Lamb, my perfect, spotless righteousness, the great unchangeable I AM, the King of glory and of grace! One with himself, I cannot die; my soul is purchased by his blood; my life is hid with Christ on high, with Christ my Saviour and my God.
