The Great Fear-Inspiring Day

The day of the Lord will come as a thief
But we shall not worry nor feel any grief.
When “peace and security”, they shall cry,
Sudden destruction will be their demise.

We’re not in darkness as to what will occur
We’re sons of light and of day, as it were.
Be on your guard of the ridiculers who dare
To dispute that the great tribulation is near.

Should we fear this day? Not at all!
Because it means salvation for those who stand tall.
All of God’s enemies will tremble with fear
But for His loyal servants, deliverance is near.

Make sure you stand ready, continue to be faithful
Enduring the trials from those who are hateful.
Trust in Jehovah with all of your heart.
He will sustain you and never depart.




(1 Thessalonians 5:1-5, 2 Peter 3:9-17, Matthew 24:42)
