The Day is Surely Drawing Near
Author: Bartholomäus Ringwaldt, 1532-1599 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 34 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The day is surely drawing near,
When He, the Lord's Anointed,
Will with great majesty appear,
As judge of all appointed.
All mirth and laughter then shall cease,
When flames on flames will still increase,
As the Apostle teacheth.
2 A trumpet loud shall then resound,
And all the earth be shaken;
Then all who in their graves are found
Shall from their sleep awaken.
But all that live shall in that hour,
By the Almighty’s boundless power,
Be at His word be changéd.
3 Then woe to those who scorned the Lord,
And sought but carnal pleasures,
Who here despised His precious Word,
And loved their earthly treasures,
With shame and trembling they will stand,
And at the Judge's stern command
Must leave the Lord forever.
4 Oh, may my name, dear Lord, be found,
Free from all condemnation,
For Thy death's sake, Thy pains and wounds,
In Thy book of salvation.
I will not doubt;--I trust in Thee;--
From Satan Thou hast made me free,
And from all condemnation.
5 Therefore, my Intercessor be,
And for Thy death and merit
Declare my name from judgment free,
With all who life inherit;
That with my brethren I may stand
With Thee in heaven, our fatherland,
Which Thou for us hast purchased.
6 Lord Jesus Christ, do not delay,
Oh, hasten our salvation!
We often tremble on our way,
In fear and tribulation.
Then hear us when we cry to Thee;
Come, mighty Judge, come, make us free
From every evil. Amen! Topics: Judgment Used With Tune: EN DAG SKALL UPPGÅ FÖR VÅR SYN
