On 1 Thessalonians

2 of 2
  1. 1 Thessalonians 4:16
    When at the awful trumpet’s sound
    The earth will be consumed by fire,
    And with a mighty rush the world
    Unhinged, will crash in dreadful ruin.

    HYMNS 11, 105-8

  2. 1 Thessalonians 5:6
    The winged messenger of day
    Sings loud, foretelling dawn’s approach,
    And Christ in stirring accents calls
    Our slumbering souls to life with him.
    “Away,” he cries, “with dull repose,
    The sleep of death and sinful sloth;
    With hearts now sober, just and pure,
    Keep watch, for I am very near.”

    HYMNS 1.1-8
