Probably the purest worship,
when you think on Him and you get lost in Him. You just, you
think and think and all of a sudden, your mind just, and that's the
purest worship I think a person ever does. Ever does. I appreciate Houston so very
much. He's got his hands full, you
know, he takes care of the camera back there, leads the singing
now, and then on top of that he works hard. So we'll give thanks for him.
Alright, I'm going to start reading here in verse 13, read down to
the end of the chapter, and hopefully say some things about this. And I heard a voice from heaven
saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the
Lord from henceforth. Yea, saith the Spirit, that they
may rest from their labors, and their works do follow them. And
I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one
sat, like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown,
and in his hand a sharp sickle. And another angel came out of
the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the
cloud, thrust in thy sickle, and reap. For the time is come
for thee to reap, for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And he that sat on the cloud
thrust in his sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped. And
another angel came out of the temple, which is in heaven, he
also having a sharp sickle. And another angel came out from
the altar, which had power over fire, and cried with a loud cry
to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle,
and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth. For her grapes
are fully ripe. And the angel thrust in his sickle
into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast
it into the great winepress of the wrath of God. And the winepress
was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress,
even under the horse bridles by the space of a thousand six
hundred furlongs. We'll talk about the harvest
this evening. Last week it was about the three
angels and their warnings. Three angels came and every one
of them had a warning. They had a message from God,
the everlasting gospel. Babylon has fallen. And then you know that angel
warned about the judgment to come. And the end time has come
now. The time of the end has come.
And like I told you, you start out with Christ. He comes. Judgment. Then we start all over
again. And here we are. We're in glory.
We're in heaven. God brought us up. He said, Come
up hither. Come up hither. And the time
of the end has come. And then the scriptures, they're
often called the harvest. You know, our Lord spoke about
harvesting. You know, one man came to him
and said, you know, didn't you plant wheat in this field? He
said, I did. He said, but why you slept? Somebody
come in here and sowed a bunch of tares among it. Sowed a bunch
of things that look like wheat. It looks like wheat, but it's
not wheat. He said, it's a bunch of tares.
He said, what are we going to do, want us to go out and pluck
them up? He said, no, no, just leave them alone. He said, I'll
separate them in the harvest. I'll separate them in the harvest.
And our Lord said, look on the earth, it's white, ready to harvest. And what is often called as a
harvest is separating the wheat from the chaff. In other places
it's called separating the sheep from the goats. But there is
coming a great separation. And there is coming a time when
this earth will come to an end. And then first, you know, there's
a harvest. There's got to be a harvest. You know, we were
the first fruits. Remember that back over here
in verse 4? It says down in the last part of
the verse, These were redeemed from among men, being the first
fruits unto God and to the Lamb. You know, in the harvest, there's
always the firstfruits. The firstfruits. And that's what
we were. We were the firstfruits. And
then John says, I heard a voice. I heard a voice. There in verse
13. From heaven. Didn't hear nothing on the earth.
He heard from heaven. And we hope that we hear from
heaven. Every time we come here, we hope and pray that God let
us hear from heaven. Don't let us just hear a preacher.
Let us hear you. Let us hear you. Let us hear
what you got to say from heaven. And I heard this voice from heaven
saying unto me, Look, what do you say? Write. I want you to
write this down. Everything else, it's very rare
for him to say write something down. But he said, I want this
written down. I want everybody to have this
in their mind. I want it wrote down so that
nobody can miss it. Right. Oh my. How many times have I preached
from this? Blessed or blessed are the dead. You say that don't make sense.
It does if you keep reading. Right. Blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord. That's the key right there. Not
just those who die, those who die in the Lord. Those who die
in Christ. Paul says, you know, for me to
live is Christ and to die is gain. So I have a desire to depart
and be with Christ, which is far, far better. And then he
says, right, blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from
henceforth. Every blessed are they which
are already dead. Blessed are they that are going
to die. That's what he's saying right here. Those that will die
in the Lord from now on. And I'm telling you, there's
been multitudes and multitudes and multitudes that no man can
count that's already died in the Lord. And I tell you, I hope
one of these days that I'll do that, that I'll go home. And
when he's talking about dying in the Lord, he's talking about
you can't die in the Lord unless you have a vital union with the
Lord Jesus Christ. You've got to be joined to Him,
and He's got to be joined to you. He's got to give you a new
heart, a new mind, a new will, a new understanding. And I tell
you what, I've never yet been anywhere in any funeral were
some way, somehow, they got somebody into heaven. They pointed to
something about them that was good. Something about them that
was right. But I tell you here, the only
people worth dying that's blessed of God is those that die in the
Lord. Huh? Oh, dying in vital union
with Christ in the cause of Christ. What a blessing it is indeed!
I was in a meeting one time out in South Carolina. Somebody called me and talked
about someone who just died. And you know what I said? I said,
Hallelujah! Thank you Lord! That's what I
said! That's the most wonderful news
I've heard! Oh no more, listen, that's the
blessed news. Now I want you to stay here as
long as you can and I want to stay here as long as I can. I
was with a fellow the other day and he said, I asked him how
he was doing and I talked to him before and he said, well,
ain't much to look forward to when you're 71 years old. I said, that's how old I am and
I've got lots of things to look forward to. You know, I've got
lots of, oh listen, I've really got something to look forward
to. You know, coming here is something to look forward to.
Getting up every day and knowing that my life is in the hands
of an infinite and eternal God. That is something I have to look
forward to. Being able to have a good night's
rest is something I look forward to. Oh, we've got lots to look
forward to. And I'll tell you what, we've
got the most blessed thing to look forward to. Blessed are
they that die in the Lord from henceforth. Oh my. When I hear you're gone, you
know what I'm going to say? Thank God. Thank God. Thank the
Lord. Bless the Lord, O my soul. You
know what else is blessed? The scripture says, Blessed in
the eyes of the Lord is the death of his saints. If God says it's
blessed, and Christ says it's his blessed, what are we afraid
of? It's blessed, it's blessed. Oh my, when you live with Christ,
live for the cause of Christ, join to Christ, I tell you what,
He said, you're talking about blessed. You're blessed indeed.
And then look what the Spirit says. Oh, and yea, the Spirit
saith, and I love this here. The Spirit says they're blessed.
And the Spirit says that they may rest from their labors. Oh
my. My labors will all be ended when
I dwell on Zion's hill. And that's what he said, rest
from their labors. All of us have labored in our
lifetimes, but the labor he's talking about here is the labor
that we have as believers. This is one of the most mysterious
things, and this seems like a contradiction, but every one of y'all understand
this. That we rest in Christ right now, But yet at the same
time, we're laboring to rest in Christ. What makes that? Because we got this to deal with. We got this old carnal mind yet
to deal with. This old flesh to deal with.
And that's why we come to hear the gospel. And we come here
and we hear about the rest we have in Christ. But when we get
there, we're going to rest. We'll never have another labor.
Never have another labor. Never ever lift up a hand to
do anything ever again but to worship God. Oh thou, blessed
are they, they'll rest from their sin. It'll never molest them
since and sin will molest no more. We'll rest from our temptations. We'll rest from our disappointments. We'll rest from our distresses. We'll rest from our flesh and
we'll rest forevermore. Oh my, blessed are they that
are chosen. Blessed are they that are redeemed.
Blessed are they that are regenerated, have the new birth. Blessed are
they that are loved eternally by the Lord Jesus Christ. And
the proof is, the lamb that was slain, that's why we're going
to be able to rest from our labors. Huh? The lamb that was slain. That's what we're going to see.
Oh my. Going to rest. You know, people
say they entered into the rest. Well, I mean, we really do. We really do. That's not just
a religious cliche. It's a reality to us. Oh, such
a reality. But oh, look what else it says
here now. They may rest from their labors. Oh, it's a labor
to deal with this world. It's a labor to deal with ourselves.
It's a labor in the gospel. It's a labor to deal with one
another sometimes. It's a labor. Labor to have to
deal with business. Getting things done in this world.
It's a labor. But we're going to rest from
them one of these days. And listen to this, and their
works follow them. What is he talking about here?
You know why they said their works follow them? Because religion
says their works is what gets them there. God wants to make
you understand that your works, they don't go before you. Most
people think they go before them. So when they get there, they'll
get in. God will look at all their works
and say, well, they've done a good job. It's good. They work good. They labor good. There's really
something down there. So I'm going to let them in. Oh, listen. People say, well,
I'm laying up bricks one at a time. No, Christ has already prepared
the house. It would be a pitiful building if
we built it, wouldn't it? It would be a pitiful building
if we built a spiritual building. It'd be a pitiful thing. It'd
be like building on the sand. Our Lord said, Oh, He's a wise
man that builds on the rock. And I'll tell you what, the works
follow Him. They come after Him. They come
after Him. It's like Simeon. You know, that's
the thing. And let me ask you this. And I've asked you this before.
Would anybody here at any time in your spiritual life stand
up and say, boy, I've done such wonderful works for the Lord. The only people who admit that
they haven't done anything, anything, is the Lord's people.
But then there's, you know, the other bunch say this, We did
this, we did that, we cast out devils, we done these works,
and we labored here, and we preached there, and we done all these
wonderful things, and all these souls that I've won. The Lord
says depart from me, I don't know you. But I tell you what,
we have to weep over our tears, we have to weep over our repentance.
We have to weep over the things that we even think that we've
ever done. Oh my. And it's like Simeon. Scripture
says, you know, he went in there and God had done promised him
when he saw the Savior, saw salvation, when he saw God's salvation,
that the Lord would let him come home. Here's an old man. He picked up that infant, the
Lord Jesus Christ, and he looked at it. And he didn't say, now
Lord, I've done everything you've told me to do, and this is the
last thing I'll ever get to do, so now let me depart in peace.
No, you know what he said? He said, Lord, mine eyes have
seen thy salvation. Now, let me go. Once you see his salvation, you
see him, you're ready to go. I mean, you know it's Well, I won't say that. I'll
have to go say something, but I won't. Then I'll tell you,
that's what we do, you know. One of these days, we sing the
Lord's Salvation. Until you see that, you're not
ready to go. You really aren't. And oh my, you know those who
die in the Lord, every single time, they see Christ
face to face. Paul said to depart. and be with
Christ is far better. To be absent from the bodies,
to be present with the Lord. And I tell you what, you'll think
about those who die in the Lord. The minute they get there, we
sing that song, Face to Face with Christ my Savior, Face to
Face with Christ my Lord. We will actually see Him face
to face. And I tell you what, we'll see
that one and we'll see Him as the Lamb that was slain. And
we'll see those marks in His hands, and we'll see Him who
interceded for us every day of our lives, and we'll see Him
as He had been slain, and we'll look at Him, and all we'll do
is stand there in wonder and adoration and thanksgiving. We
are so thankful here, but imagine what thankful we'll be when we
get there. We can't, our minds can't get
it, but I sure enjoy thinking about it and talking about it.
I certainly do. Oh my, they shall see Him there
in His glory. Oh, the 420 beasts fall down
before Him. The 12 elders fall down before
Him. And we'll take every crime, crime
of life, crime of righteousness, and we'll throw them at His feet
and say, blessed is the Lord God Almighty. Oh, we'll praise
Him and thank Him and bless Him forever. And we'll see Him there
as a man. We'll see Him in His human nature.
Where He sits in majesty beside the right hand of God. And that's
what it says about Him. God set Him at His own right
hand of majesty. Power and glory. Oh my. They will all see him, those
who go to see him, they see him as the one who conquered sin. And they'll never remember it
ever again. You know that's one of the most
glorious things for my mind to think about, is that when we
get there, sin will never be in our mind ever again. We'll
never know we ever did it. That's hard for us to get our
breath, you know. We get there and we'll never know. Only we
will be there to praise Him. Oh, we'll see Him who conquered
sin, who was satisfaction, who put away death and put Satan
under his feet. No wonder it says rest. Oh, what
a rest it'll be. And I'll say this here, if you
don't rest in Him here right now, you won't rest in Him up
there either. Ain't that right? If we rest
in Him here, if you rest in Him here, and you know Him here,
you'll rest in Him there, and you'll know Him there. But oh
my, we'll know Him perfectly. I heard a whole stupid song the
other day, and I mentioned it to my wife Shirley. I said, there's an old song,
you know, The Lord took my girlfriend away from me, you know, took
her, accident, car wreck, and all that stuff. And he said,
so now I got to be good so I can see my baby when I leave this
world. Got to be good. And that's all religion knows.
They can't say anything else. But that's the first thing I,
you know what? I said this longer than, but it just dawned on me. He said, I got to be good. Got
to be good. But beloved, there's not a thing
good about us except Christ. If we have any gifts, He gave
it to us. If we know anything, He taught
us. Oh my, no wonder we're arrested
there. And I tell you, we cease from
our labors. God entered into His rest when He ceased from
His labors. And when we cease from our works,
we enter into His rest. Don't we? And then let me give
you the final judgment. Here's the final judgment. Look
what it says here now in verse 14. Now He's done wrote this
down for us. And He looked. Now He's seeing
something. And behold, a white cloud And
upon the cloud, one set like unto the Son of Man, having on
his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle."
Oh my! There's a two-fold harvest here
described. First of all, our Lord Jesus
sitting on this white cloud. White symbolizes holiness. The
cloud symbolizes judgment. You know, the Scriptures tells
us, you know, our Lord told them, He says, the next time you see
me, I'll be coming in a cloud and in glory. And He told them
that two or three times in Mark, Matthew, all of them. And when
our Lord Jesus Christ, He said, Christ in Revelations 1-7 said,
He shall come in His glory and on a cloud and every eye shall
see Him, every eye shall behold Him. And here He is, beloved. He's sitting on this cloud. He's
going to come in a cloud of glory. And that's sent one like the
Son of Man. And when He talks about the Son
of Man, that means He's identifying with us. The Son of Man. He's identifying with us right
now. He's the Son of Man. He's a man.
And He's telling us He's a man. And listen to this. having on
his head a golden crown. You know who wears crowns? Kings. You know who wears crowns? People
that's worthy of them. And it was a crown of thorns
when he was on that cross. Now he's got a crown of gold
on his head. In fact, in one place it says
he has many crowns. This is the crown of victory.
The crown of a victor, the crown of a conqueror, the crown of
a glorious and great king. And then look what it says, on
his head is a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp, sharp sickle. Everybody here knows what a sickle
is. And I tell you what, he's prepared for the harvest. He's
got the sickle in his hand, sitting on that cloud. And you know,
I wonder how big this sickle is. And I think this is just really
truly symbolic because he don't come and cut things down. He
just does what he does. But he uses this to show us that
when he's got this sharp sickle, when he's getting ready to harvest,
people fixing to be really, really face the judgment. And oh my,
didn't look what it says in verse 15. Another angel comes. And
he came out of the temple. He came out from the very presence
of God. He comes out from the temple.
And I tell you, crying with a loud voice, to him that sat on that
cloud, he's talking to Christ. He's talking to our mediator.
He's talking to the Son of Man sitting there. One like unto
the Son of Man. And he cried with a loud voice.
And he said, thrust in thy sickle and reap. It's time to reap. It's time to get the harvest.
The harvest is ripe. That's what he said. He said
the harvest of the earth is ripe. Ripe. And I'll tell you something,
beloved. Our Lord says lift up your eyes
and look. The harvest. Look. Great harvest. And I'll tell
you our Lord Jesus Christ. And look what he says in verse
16. The earth is ripe. You know, you don't go out harvesting
things until it's ripe. If something gets too ripe, you
don't even want to harvest. Well, He said the earth is just
exactly right. It's exactly right. Right. And what He purposes, He has
accomplished. And He that sat on the cloud
thrust in the sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped. Remember our Lord Jesus said,
Gather the wheat into the barn. Throw the chaff away and burn
it. Oh my! Christ comes and He harvests
His people. He harvests His saints, His elect. But then look what happens to
the wicked. You know, He comes, our Lord, He's coming out of
the temple. Christ is coming for us. He lays in that sickle
and He harvests His people. He calls us the harvest, calls
us the first fruits. He puts that sickle in, and beloved,
we all go to be with Him. And then look at the harvest
of the wicked. There's going to be another one. And Bruce
Crabtree told me the other day, and Steve listened to it last
week. He preached on God is angry with
the wicked every day. Hated the workers of iniquity.
That's what it is. Hates the worker of iniquity.
That'd be some subject for a preacher to get up and preach on, wouldn't
it? Look at a big congregation and look at a congregation and
say, God hates the workers of iniquity. People say, God loves
the sinner and hates the sin. Where'd you find that at? Huh? That's not what it says. And
here, the wicked, they're going to be harvested too. And there's
two angels now that cry. Another angel came out of the
temple. One came out of the temple, spoke
to the Son of Man, like unto the Son of Man, said, Reap. The
harvest is ripe. The earth is ripe. It's ready
to be harvested. And he that sat on the cloud
thrust in his sickle, and the earth was reaped. And another
angel came out of the temple, still from the very presence
of God. The temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp
sickle. And another angel came out from
the altar. This one comes from the altar
now. Why did he come from the altar? Why did he come from the
altar? One comes from the temple, the
sanctuary. He has a sharp sickle, comes from the presence of the
Lord. He comes out there with orders. The next one comes from
the altar. And look what he says here. He
had power over fire. Why did he say from the altar?
Look back over in Revelation 6 and I'll show you. I'll show
you why he said the altar. Come from the altar. You know, one comes from off
the altar. He had power over fire. Look what is said here now in
verse 9. And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw unto the
altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God,
and for the testimony which they held. And they cried with a loud
voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not
judge and avenge our blood on the earth and on them that dwell
on the earth? And that's why this one comes
from the altar. It's time to avenge the blood of those saints,
those who died, those who were martyred for the Christ and for
His glorious testimony that they had of Him. Look in chapter 8.
In verse 3, another angel came and stood
at the altar having a golden censer. And there was given unto
him much incense that he should offer it with the prayers of
the saints upon the golden altar before the throne. And the smoke
of the incense which came with the prayers of the saints ascended
up before God. out of the angel's hands. And
the angel took the censer, filled it with fire off the altar, and
cast it into the earth. And oh my, the thunders and lightnings
and earthquakes, that shows us the judgment of God. And that's
what's happening now. So this angel comes from the
temple, from the presence of God. He's got that sharp sickle. And another angel comes off the
altar, and he's got that power of fire. 5 represents judgment
of course and he's told that him that had the sharp sickle
cried with a loud cry thrust in thy sharp sickle and gather
the clusters of the vine of the earth for her grapes are fully
ripe. Oh the judgment of the wicked
is final answer to the prayers of the saints that's under the
altar. How long Lord before you avenge
our blood? How long? Well this is being
avenged right here. And I heard the prayers from
the people under that altar and those of the altar of incense.
Send forth thy sickle, thy sharp sickle. And he said, gather the
clusters of the vine. He said, the grapes are fully
ripe. What is the vine? What is these grapes that he's
talking about? It's a multitude of the entire evil man that's
on the earth. Grapes are individual believers.
And he said, thrust it in, it's ready, it's ready. And then look
what happens. Verse 19, And the angel thrust
in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the
earth, gathered the whole thing, one vine, and all the grapes
on that vine, and gathered the clusters off that vine, her grapes
were fully ripe. Well he gathered that vine and,
listen to this, and cast it into the great rind press of the wrath
of God. Oh my, oh my. Cast it into the great rind press
of the wrath of God. Can you imagine what that's like?
Huh? A rind press. You see these people
stomping on grapes and all that? That's just people having fun.
When they really, really press grapes, they got these big fangs
that just come down. Crush them, and crush them, and
crush them, and crush them, and crush them, and crush them, and
crush them. A big press that comes down. Can you imagine the
power, and might, and anger of God Almighty when He comes down
and He puts that wine press, it's the wine press of the wrath
of God. And he starts pressing down,
starts pressing down, and starts pressing down. And nobody, you
know not one person says, Lord have mercy on me. Not one person
says, Lord I'm sorry. Not one person says, oh, please
forgive me. No, no. No, no. You look over
there. I think it's in Revelation 4
or 5 where it says, you know, they repented not of their murders.
And this is the rind pressed. The rind grapes were trodden,
pressed, crushed. And the wicked are going to be
destroyed. Going to be destroyed. I want you to look with me in
Isaiah 63. Talking about This wine press. Look what our Lord Jesus did
here. Isaiah 63. Who is this that cometh from
Edom with garments from Bozrah? This that is glorious in his
apparel, traveling in the greatness of his strength. Oh, he's got
the power, the ability, the power. Ah, the speaking righteousness,
mighty to save. Well, why then are you red in
your apparel? Why are your garments like him
that treadeth the wine fat? That's the wine press. Listen
to what our Lord said here. I have trodden the winepress
alone, and of the people there was none with me. I'll tread
them in my anger, and trample them in my fury, and their blood
shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain with all my
raiment. The day of vengeance is in my
heart. Now, back over here in Revelation. So Christ is the
one written in this judgment here. And oh, they cast him into the
great rind press of the wrath of God. Now look in verse 20.
And the wine press was trodden. They took it out of the city
now. They took it outside the city. Oh, we can't let this view. No,
they took it outside the city. The judgment's going to be out.
Christ was taken without the city. Trodden, and the wine press
was trodden without the city. And listen to this now. And blood
came out of the winepress. Not grapes, blood. Blood. Blood of who? The blood of the
wicked. He said, how long will it be before you avenge our blood?
Well, their blood is being avenged. And the blood starts pouring
out of that winepress. I mean blood. Dark red blood. And blood came out of the winepress. Now listen to this. Even under
the horse bridles, It got so deep that it was up to the horses'
bridles. And how big was this space? 1,600
furlongs. And that's what this blood of
all of God's avid in the blood of His people that's ever been
on this earth, and this lake of blood was so deep that horses
had to swim in it. horses had to swim in. And I
got this, I don't remember where I got it at, but I got this,
that this space here, this area is about 200 square miles. So God's got them in one place, punished them in one place, and
he said, you shed my people's blood And I'm going to shed your
blood. I'm going to let your blood run.
I'm going to let it run and run and run and run and run till
the horses have to swim in your blood. Showing us how awful the
judgment of God is. That's going to be awful, ain't
it? And ain't you thankful that it started out Blessed are the
dead. It started out like that. So
we're not going to be in verse 20. We're not going to be in
verse 19. We're not going to be in verse 18. We're in verse
13. Blessed are they that die in
the Lord and die from henceforth forever. Now rest from their
labors. Rest from their labors. So that's
where we're at. And we're just standing there,
and it'll say, we'll find this out here real soon. When this
is happening, when God is judging men, we'll all be standing around
saying, Hallelujah, the Lord God Omnipotent reigneth. When
judgment comes on the earth, and we'll say salvation belongs
unto God. And while He's punishing them,
we're praising Him. We're praising Him. I look forward. I wish the Lord would come get
us all one time. Wouldn't you? That'd be the most
wonderful thing in the world. That'd be the most wonderful
things in the world. Wouldn't it? For Christ to come get us
all. Oh my. He has come and got so many.
So many we've known. So many we've loved. And you
know I wonder, John said, the last thing in the Revelation
is this. The Lord said, Behold, I come
quickly. John said, Amen. Even so, come,
Lord Jesus. Our Father, thank you for allowing
us to have another service, another time of worship, another time
of looking into your word. I thank you for the day. I thank
you for the prayers that's been prayed, the scriptures that's
been read, the saints of God that came out. Lord, I thank
you for your people. Thank you for your gospel. Thank
you for your blood, for your death. And oh Lord, I'm thankful
that judgment's in your hands, it's not in ours. It's not up
to us to pass judgment and bring judgment upon people. Lord, the
judgment of the wicked, the judgment of this world is in your hands.
And one thing we know, Men will get just exactly what's coming
to them. You're the judge of all the earth
and you must do right. And we'll stand and say amen. And we say that even now, amen. You'll always, you're the judge
of all the earth and you must do right. Bring glory to yourself
through us. Increase our love for one another.
Increase our love for you. We ask these things in Christ's
name. Amen. Turn to 497. We'll sing this
and then we'll go home. Let's stand together. 497. When I can't read my title clear
to match arms in the skies I'll bid farewell to every fear and
wipe my weeping eyes And wipe my weeping eyes. And wipe my weeping eyes. And they failed to love me. And failed to love weeping eyes. Should earth again Then I can smile at Satan's rage
And face a frowning world And face a frowning world Smile at Satan's rage and face
a frowning world. Let cares like air and deluge
come and storms of foreign fall. My God, my heaven, my all. My God, my heaven, my all. My God, my heaven, my all. where I may safely reach my home,
my God, my heaven, my home. I love this one right here. There
shall I be, my weary soul, in seas of heavenly rest. Across my peaceful breath, across
my peaceful breath cross my peaceful breath. Not a man of trouble, no, to
cross my peaceful breath.
