REDEMPTION DRAWS NEAR

SCRIPTURE

Luke 21:25-28 (NRSV)

The roaring of the sea and the waves

"There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on the earth distress among nations confused by the roaring of the sea and the waves. People will faint from fear and foreboding of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see 'the Son of Man coming in a cloud' with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to take place, stand up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.

MEDITATION—Today is Saturday Psalmody! Today, the meditation is offered as a psalm from my heart. If you would like a more traditional devotion, please search the archives for a title that appeals to you! (smile)


REDEMPTION DRAWS NEAR

Son of man coming

Rapture forthcoming

Stars moon and sun

Astrology undone

Distress in the earth

Proves Biblical worth

Ocean waves roaring

Ignorant ignoring

The signs

That tell

The Truth…


Chorus:

It’s time to stand up

Lift up your head

Redemption is drawing near…(repeat)


Jesus exalted

Sin now been halted

People run shouting

Done with their doubting

Earth shakes

Heaven quakes

Jesus takes

The sleeping awake

Forgives our mistakes

Throws the devil in a lake

Of fire!

Fire!

Fire!

For

the

Liar!


Chorus:

It’s time to stand up

Lift up your head

Redemption is drawing near…(repeat)


Fear foreboding

Mystery decoding

Bible is true today

Jesus descending

Relationships mending

Jesus is here today!


Chorus:

It’s time to stand up

Lift up your head

Redemption is drawing near…(x3)


STAND UP!

STAND UP!

REDEMPTION IS DRAWING NEAR…

STAND UP!

STAND UP!

REDEMPTION IS DRAWING NEAR..

REDEMPTION IS DRAWING NEAR…

REDEMPTION.

IS.

DRAWING.

NEAR…
