The Last Call

By Isabel Mc Innes

ISABEL MC INNES
When Jesus to his Father's home Ascended up on high, Two men in shining robes appeared, And to the saints drew nigh.
“Ye men of Galilee, why stand Ye gazing heavenward so? This Jesus will so come again As ye have seen him go.”
The years have swiftly come and gone, And all the signs are here; And now the saints with patience wait For Jesus to appear.
God's messengers to all the world Are hastening to and fro; To every nation, tribe, and tongue, The message now must go.
“Fear God, and glory give to him,” Is sounding far and near. Let all who hear, repeat the cry, The judgment hour is here.
Go quickly, ’tis the Lord’s command; Why stand ye idle here? To cities and the highways go, Proclaim the end is near.
Come, all things now are ready; Bring in the maimed and blind. The Master still is pleading The cause of all mankind.
“How long, O Lord, how long?” The weary pilgrims cry; The answer comes, “Look up, look up, Salvation draweth nigh.”
Behold he cometh quickly, Join in the swelling cry; Let all the earth be lightened With glory from on high.
