Author: Thomas of Celano Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #606 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 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?
2 When, shriveling like a parched scroll,
The flaming heavens together roll;
When louder yet, and yet more dread,
Resounds the trump that wakes the dead;
3 O on that day, that wrathful day,
When man to judgment wakes from clay,
Be Thou, O Christ, the sinner's stay,
Though heaven and earth shall pass away. Topics: The Last Things Christ's Second Coming; The Last Things Christ's Second Coming; Judgment; Second Coming of Christ Tune Title: [That day of wrath, that dreadful day]
