In the Day of the Lord ====================== w&m: M.D. Ridge, 1992 [Refrain] In the day of the Lord, the sun will shine like the dawn of eternal day. All creation will rise to dance and sing the glory of the Lord! [Verse 1] And on that day will justice triumph, on that day will all be free: free from want, free from fear, free to live! [Refrain] [Verse 2] Then shall the nations throng together to the mountain of the Lord: they shall walk in the light of the Lord! [Refrain] [Verse 3] And they shall beat their swords to plowshares; there will be an end to war: one in peace, one in love, one in God! [Refrain] [Verse 4] For Israel shall be delivered, and the desert lands will bloom. Say to all, “Do not fear. Here is your God!” [Refrain] [Verse 5] And on that day of Christ in glory, God will wipe away our tears, and the dead shall rise up from their graves! [Refrain] [Verse 6] O give us eyes to see your glory, give us hearts to understand. Let our ears hear your voice ‘til you come! [Refrain]
