THIRD MESSAGE.

By J. S. Miller

AIR,—Eden Above.

Do you heed the sweet voice of the third angel’s message? 'Tis the last note of warning to mortals below; 'Twill save you from wrath—'twill secure you a passage To that bright, happy land where the saints will soon go. They will go, they will go, they will go, they will go, To that bright, happy land, all the saints will soon go.

The commandments of God, and the pure faith of Jesus— It is this perfect rule we are bound to obey. From tradition and error the message soon frees us, And prepares us to live in an eternal day. We shall live, we shall live, we shall live, we shall live, We shall joyfully live in an eternal day.

If any man worship the beast or his image, Receiving his mark in his forehead or hand, The same shall partake of the wine of God’s anger, Poured out without mixture—oh, who then can stand? Who can stand, who can stand, who can stand, who can stand? God’s wrath, without mixture! Oh! who then can stand?

Lo, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen; It is thus she’s fulfilling the prophetic word; She’s a dwelling of demons, a hold of foul spirits, A fit cage of every unclean, hateful bird. Come away, come away, come away, come away, Partake not her sins, and receive not her plagues.

The saints shall come forth out of great tribulation; It is thus they will enter the kingdom of God; For all who would travel the way of salvation, Must thus learn submission, ’neath his chast’ning rod. They must learn, they must learn, they must learn, they must learn, They must thus learn submission ’neath his chast’ning rod.
