That day of wrath, that dreadful day
Author: Thomas of Celano, 13th century; Sir Walter Scott Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 347 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:10 Lyrics: 1 That day of wrath, that dreadful day
When heav'n and earth shall pass away!
What pow'r shall be the sinner's stay?
How shall he meet that dreadful day?
2 When, shriveling like a parched scroll,
The flaming heav'ns together roll;
When louder yet, and yet more dread,
Swells the high trump that wakes the dead;
3 O on that day, that wrathful day
When man to judgment wakes from clay,
Be thou the trembling sinner's stay,
Though heav'n and earth shall pass away.
Amen. Topics: Christ, The Lord Jesus; Christ Second Coming and Judgment of; Resurrection of Believers; Resurrection of All Men Used With Tune: ST. CROSS

all wrong shall stand revealed,
when justice shall be clothed with might,
and every hurt be healed,

shall walk the earth abroad:

Author: James Lewis Milligan (1876-1961) Meter: Irregular Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: 2 Peter 3:8-15 First Line: There's a voice in the wilderness crying Lyrics: 1 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying,
a call from the ways untrod:
prepare in the desert a highway,
a highway for our God!
The valleys shall be exalted,
the lofty hills brought low;
make straight all the crooked places,
where the Lord our God may go!
2 O Zion, give voice to good tidings,
ascend to the heights and sing!
Proclaim to a desolate people
the coming of their King.
The works of pride all perish,
like flowers they shall decay;
the power and pomp of nations
shall pass like a dream away.
3 But your word, O God, is faithful,
your arm, O Lord, is strong;
you stand in the midst of nations,
and you will right the wrong.
You will feed your flock like a shepherd,
and fold the lambs to your breast;
in pastures of peace you’ll lead them,
and give to the weary rest.
4 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying,
a call from the ways untrod:
prepare in the desert a highway,
a highway for our God!
The valleys shall be exalted,
the lofty hills brought low;
make straight all the crooked places,
where the Lord our God may go! Topics: Advent; John, the Baptist Used With Tune: ASCENSION

With blood from the cross He doth sprinkle
Her altars of cleansing for me.
