New Words to an old Hymn

The gospel theme is sounding through every clime and land;
A remnant is returning according to his plan;
His kingdom is a growing beneath his watchful gaze,
To all the world it’s spreading in these the latter days.

Now temples are a building in nations far and near,
In darkness light is shining because the work done here.
His work is hastening forward; no power can stop his ways
Of bringing home his children in these the latter days.

The prophet’s voice is crying through places far and wide
To warn us to be living now on the Lords right side.
The sheep and goats are joining each to their separate ways,
To safety or destruction in these the latter days.

The Lord will soon be coming to greet his faithful saints,
who through life’s sorrowing trials ner stops nor ever faints,
then we will all be happy and full of songs of praise
to our dear Lord and Savior in these the latter days.

Thanks Auralee

For someone who has worked on computers since 1972 it is about time I got out of the computer stone age and began using a blog. I want to publicly thank Auralee for helping me get started.
