Tune: Lyngham
('O for a thousand tongues to sing')
Revelation 11 v.15-19
*********
Seventh angel's trumpet sound
Great voices did redound
Great voices did redound
In heaven, saying, The world's kingdoms
All now God's, not just some
All now God's, not just some
All now, All now God's, not just some
They now the kingdoms of our Lord
And His Christ, final word
And His Christ, final word
And He shall reign for evermore
Has by Himself assured
Has by Himself assured
Has by, Has by Himself assured
Twenty four elders before throme
Of God, His greatness known
Of God, His greatness known
They bow down, worship Him, saying
Our thanks to you we bring
Our thanks to you we bring
Our thanks, Our thanks to you we bring
You are the Lord God Almighty
Past, present, future be
Past, present, future be
The ever-living One, taken
Your power, reigned midst men
Your power, reigned midst men
Your power, Your power, reigned midst men
He shall judgements, rewards dispense
And men shall see them hence
And men shall see them hence
Shall destroy them who earth destroy
Each evil scheme and ploy
Each evil scheme and ploy
Each evil, Each evil scheme and ploy
Temple of God in heaven open
Covenant's Ark seen then
Covenant's ark seen then
Lightnings, voices, thunderings
Earthquake, hail, great things then
Earthquake, hail, great things then
Earthquake, Earthquake, great things then

This is a hymn of destruction billed as a great thing. There seems a thin line between glorious and devastation both inspire awe. Nicely written my friend.
Thank you SB. It's a comfort in a way that those who deliberately set out to destroy the earth will receive punishment for it. Conservationists, 'greenies', etc help to preserve the earth and creation.
You are most welcome Orchi
Good one O! or is it Q, now? Still good, though 🤩👍🏻🕊️
