Where Were You - 2

Cont... from Where were you - 1 Ah, if only they could see the terrible truth, Of the plans they have to steal power, From each and every nation on earth, Are all foretold; Just not the day or hour, So you just sit back and take it easy, For these terrifying things can’t be stopped, They are written, and we from sea to shining sea, Have no hope except for our lamps to be held up, Hold the lamp of your faith in our Lord high, Let all see that you care, love and follow, The Lord’s two commandments we live by, To Love God… and Love all people now, Pray for all as we pass through this test, Of our faith in our Lord being rewarded, Which will cause much doubt and unrest, In those without complete faith in our Lord, And remember that our job does not change, As true disciples and as true Christians, We are to gather the harvest we obtain, As believers who nonbelievers may shun, The light is now rising and coming from the East, And the remnant from every Christian Church, Must stand together against the terrible beast, And yet love the new kings who will run the earth, For each of them will still be God’s children, And by turning even one of their hearts, We may be able to save one of them, And their terrifying plan may fall apart, But the wars, the disasters and sheer greed, Will not stop and indeed will increase, To the point where people can’t eat, And lands will be consumed by disease, And when all of this has come to pass, When we learn how the rapture worked, And the Lord saves the sinners ‘til last, Those of us who failed to live by the Word, So in the future when the people ask, ‘Where were you when this happened?’, Burning questions which will take us to task, ‘We were too busy to worry about the end.’.
