Maranatha
'Neath Angel Wings -
Oe'rshadowed by a love Divine,
She trembled, yet was strong,
A world of darkness, groped for light;
She was chosen from the throng,
Blest art thou - Her kneeling form
Found favor, His will was done,
Her robe of flesh, she freely gave,
To clothe, God's gift and Son.
'Neath Gopher Wood -
Oe'rshadowed by a threatening cloud,
He labored, yet was scorned,
A world of blindness, steeped in sin;
They feared, on threat of harm.
For Forty Days - He sorely cried;
The ark, God's plan remained,
The lamb and lion, came by twos -
The door was shut - it rained.
'Neath Fig-Tree Bloom -
Oe'rshadowed by a blooming branch,
The nation new, yet old;
A world of madness, void of peace,
The wars run hot and cold.
O rocks and mountains, hide His Face.
The judgment on earth begins;
The blackened sun, a moon of blood,
The price men pay for sin.
