Falling stars
The sixth trumpet has blown a vicious call The word has gone out for the stars to fall Scientists will run and astrologers collide When the heavens unroll, even the moon will hide The righteous will teach the wicked that curse the hundred pound arrows stabbing the earth Ten thousand times three, per hour they’ll burl and burn and crush and reduce man by a third Where’s the crevice to hide, the rock to shield There must be a place His wrath they won’t feel Where’s the place to pray, that they can steal The hole they can conquer, where they can squeal Waters dry, love waxes cold and all green disappears The heat grows greatly to add to their tears A year, a month and a day will measure the time Still, they blaspheme His name and add to their crime Darkness and pestilence, famines and earthquakes Even volcanoes in diverse places to fill the lakes won’t stop their whoredoms and their treasons honoring the idols of their heart by selfish reasons They that worship the beast and honor his plans With a mark on their heads or on their hands will persecute the righteous by resolute desire and follow him who tells them he stopped the fire They’ll bow to this god of force who heightens his boast Until he comes face to face with the heavenly host By brightness of seven suns will Christ come with power To melt his covetousness and crumble his tower Our Lord will rule and in His glory we’ll kneel The deserts will blossom and the earth will heal There will be peace on earth, goodwill to men His righteousness will shine, Glory-Glory, Amen
