2 Before thy indignation fierce, What mortal Soul can stand? Thy wrath is poured out like Fire, Which none can countermand.
3 The Mountains are thrown down by thee, Thy wrath doth fiercely burn, And all before thee, thou Lord wilt To Ashes quickly turn.
4 Fire breaks forth sometimes we see, When men are not aware, So shall thy wrath surprise the Earth When men secure are.
4 Fire breaks forth sometimes we see, When men are not aware, So shall thy wrath surprize the Earth When men secure are.
5 Like to the writing with the hand On proud Belshazzar's wall, So when thou dost give the Command, Sinners shall tremble all.
