Judgment Day
Seal up the word; you’ll harden your heart
Then you will hear Him say: Depart!
Depart from Me I never knew you
Though I knit you together and then I grew you
I raised you up for my delight
I raised you up to be my light
A brilliant beacon in this dark world
At you many insults should have been hurled
But you rejected Me in these last days
And you turned aside from all My ways
Now you stand condemned at the sound of My voice
But not by Me; by your own choice!
