MANS LAST DAY

by Peter the Poet
www.youtube.com/channel/UC_GtbBeRm8ctYlmNqax4afA

What will occur on the day of the Lord?
The day when the last trump is heard.
What chain of events will affect life on Earth?
From Mankind to the smallest Bird.

Just stop and think about what you will say,
When the Lord of Hosts calls out your name.
Will you step forward and hold your head high?
Or hide as you cower in shame.

And what of the world and it's ungodly ways?
What force can it field on that day?
Are armies of men greater than God?
Can weapons of war keep Holy vengeance at bay?

And what of the sinner? Can he run and hide?
When he realizes the truth of the Word.
At the end it's too late to change and repent,
Will his pleas for mercy be heard?

And how will the Lord's countenance appear?
He once was the Lamb but no more.
This time as the Lion, snarling with wrath?
A frightening sight to the spiritually poor.

And how much deeper will man's terror be?
When his glorious works cannot stand.
His towers are rubble, his Kingdoms are waste,
At one touch of the Holiest hand.

And where is man's courage on his worst day?
When the rivers of blood overflow.
When the bodies are stacked to the mountain tops,
Where does his pride and boasting go?

And what of the Serpent and his Army of death?
Now that their damage is done.
Do they chuckle and jibe at a docile world?
That they've led to the pit just for fun.

But what of the Church on this great day?
When service is paid it's reward.
Are they in the arms of the Father they've loved?
Untouched by the vengeful, Holy Sword.

I think they'll be heard all over the world,
As God judges the hearts of men.
With unequalled joy they'll look to the Earth,
And they'll pray, "Even so, Amen".

AUTHORS NOTE:
Where will you be on that day? If you don't know God you better ask yourself this question and choose a side. There is only two sides to choose from, the winners and the losers. It is predestined by God that Satan and the world are not the winners, but the choice is yours to decide your own way. Those in the Church might want to take a good look at themselves and ensure that they can stand before God blameless and without blemish. As for me, I'm stocking up on scouring pads and getting busy on those stubborn stains!!
