In These Last Days

In these last days
Knowledge grows by leaps and bounds; 
Science and technology are amazing, 
The invention of robots and gadgets abounds.

In these last days
Man is occupied by earthly endeavors; 
The world's end will come like a thief, 
Signs say judgment day is at the doors.

In these last days
Love for God is getting cold; 
Not a few live in sinful pleasures
Instead of searching for the fold.

In these last days
Man's life is in great peril; 
Danger awaits him everywhere, 
No place for one to live safe and well.

But there's a ray of hope for mankind, 
Giving them the chance to know God's ways; 
The angel from the ends of the earth
Is heaven-sent in these last days.
