That day of wrath, that dreadful day,
When Heaven and earth shall pass away!
What power shall be the sinner’s stay?
How shall he meet that dreadful day?
When, shriveling like a parchèd scroll,
The flaming heavens together roll;
When louder yet, and yet more dread;
Swells the high trump that wakes the dead.
O on that day, that wrathful day
When man to judgment wakes from clay,
Be Thou the trembling sinner’s stay,
Though Heaven and earth shall pass away.
Jesus, ‘tis thou, at that dread hour,
When time itself shall be no more,
Still, still wilt prove thy people’s stay,
Though heaven and earth shall pass away.
Fear not, my soul, with Jesus one,
For thee he pleads before the throne;
For thee he pleads the atoning blood,
For thee the righteousness of God.
Fear not, here stands thy hope secure,
As long as Godhead shall endure;
Who, who my soul can injure thee,
One with incarnate Deity?
Fear not, like a parchèd scroll,
The flaming heavens together roll;
Though louder yet, and yet more dread,
Swells the high trump that wakes the dead.
Fear not the dread, that wrathful day,
When man to judgment wakes from clay;
Jesus is still his people’s stay,
Though heaven and earth shall pass away.
---Alternative verses---
O on that day, that wrathful day
When man to judgment wakes from clay,
What power shall be the sinner’s stay,
When heaven and earth shall pass away.
The day of wrath, that dreadful day,
When Heaven and earth shall pass away!
What power shall be the sinner’s stay?
How shall he meet that dreadful day?
