Tune: Leibster Jesu
('Dearest Jesu, we are here')
Revelation 16 v.10-16
***********
Fifth angel his vial did pour
Upon seat of beast, judgement sore
Beast's kingdom full of darkness
People gnawed tongues in pain's distress
Blasphemed God because of their pains
Not repenting, no comfort gains
Sixth angel his vial did pour
On river Euphrates and shore
Water dried up, that the way
For kings of east to come that day
Three unclean spirits like frogs did
Appear then, for they were not hid
Came from mouth of the dragon
And beast and false prophet, each one
They the spirit of devils
Working miracles, great evils
They went forth to kings of he earth
To gather to battle and dearth
The battle of the great day
Of God Almighty, we now say
He said, Behold, come I do
Watch and be ready here anew
Clothed in garments spiritual, so
His providings His people know
Kings and armies gathered to
A place called in Hebrew, ehre view
Armageddon, battle-place
Mount Megiddo, we did it trace
Another judgement unconcealed
In God's plan each one is revealed

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 7.8.7.8.8.8 metre. I am unsure of the meaning of all the meanings of the symbolisms in this, and in some other passages in Revelation.
