Open For Business Closed At End of Day

O great is the mercy of God!
If we had only seen with our eyes…
If we’d only been wise…
O how he tries…
To turn our heads from our Iniquities!

O how severe is God’s wrath!
When the fruit is ripe, when the day is done…
When we’ve wholly turned our back from the son…
When He has drawn a plumb line over sin’s fun…
O how fearsome is the Day of the Lord!
