The Midnight Hour


The clock has struck the midnight hour.
God is on His Judgment Seat.
As Christ is coming in His power,
This time for Him is bittersweet.

God’s righteous anger burns in Him.
No longer will He tolerate
The game the world has played with sin.
Their time is up, the hour’s late.

As earth is shifting, shaking, reeling,
Man attempts to soothe their fears.
But empty hopes, though flesh-appealing,
End in grief and many tears.

Hear the trumpet fill the skies!
The Bridegroom on His snow-white horse
Bids His radiant Bride, “Arise!”
In glory He will gallop forth.

If there was time in Paradise
It would have ended long ago.
Two thousand years and now the Christ
Will take His Bride and wrath will flow. 

-- Charity, girl, age 15



Author's note The poems in this blog were written by my children, ages seven through fourteen. The "Why This Blog" post explains how the Lord inspired these poems in answer to a prayer during illness. Also see my blogs:

I  recommend visiting my children's blog, A Brush with Life, where you will also find beautiful art they have drawn for the glory of God. You can access my complete blog directory at "Writing for the Master." Now I'd like to ask a very important question.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"
