| Hear this!
Locusts are at the field's
edge
Vines will be stripped bare,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Seed will shrivel beneath
clods
Stores of grain will be
empty,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Herds will be left very hungry
Pastures will be so barren,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Water brooks will soon run
dry
Rain drops will fall no
more,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Blow the trumpet!
Days will soon turn to darkness
Clouds will grow ever dark,
The Day of the Lord is near.
People will run for the high
hills
Fire will burn fast behind,
The Day of the Lord is near.
People will tremble to the
core
Earth will shake before
them,
The Day of the Lord is near.
People will cry out in anguish
Foreign solders will attack,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Yet even now!
Return to Me with all your
hearts
Come to Me while you can,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Return to Me that I might
relent
Come take of My mercy,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Return to Me to avert disaster
Come that I may spare you,
The Day of the Lord is near.
Return to Me My dear children
Come drink of My grace,
The Day of the Lord is here.
