In the Days

In the Days

A Poem by Brother Jacob

We’re in the days when hearts wax cold.
Biblical days that were foretold.
Every way seems right in our own eyes.
Let’s look to You Lord and be wise.

We’re in the days that we’re divided.
In our flesh, we are misguided.
We‘re in the days, of violence and hate.
Let our crooked paths, be made straight.

In this world of hate let's be kind.
In this world of confusion renew our minds.
In this world of doubt help us believe.
When we don’t know help us perceive.

In this world of pride keep us humble.
In this world of temptation don’t let us stumble.
In this world of darkness don’t let us fear.
Draw us closer keep us near.

We’re in the days when pandemics rise.
Why do these days catch us by surprise.
We’re in the days of floods, tornadoes, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions,  and famines.
And everyone still is chasing mammon.

We’re in the days that our hearts yearn.
We look for the day that Christ returns.
We’re in the days when it’s time to reap.
Let’s arise and shine out of our sleep.

In this world of sickness,
You make us whole
Though floods may rise, You’re in control.
In this world of famine we are satisfied.
We are rich because You provide.

We’re in the days that our hearts yearn.
We look for the day that Christ returns.
We’re in the days when it’s time to reap.
Let’s arise and shine out of our sleep.
