Another Song

I wrote this short song a few months back after reading Matthew 24:4-28 and the cf in Luke. The title comes from Matthew 10:22. I see so many fruitions of these prophecies in international--and local--news; it's almost frightening sometimes. The end is so near. It's thrilling in a fearful way.

"He Who Endures"

I see the sky darkening
I hear the end harkening
I feel the world turning black
as satan's forces attack

I feel the earth quaking hard
I hear rumors of war
I watch men as they learn, ever learn
yet for truth they do not yearn

I watch selfish children mope
I know the world's without hope
I see fools considered wise
I see black, darkening skies

I watch famine halt supplies
I hear troubles multiply
I see the dark beginning
of sorrows, God, save us now
