Listen to the Lion

"The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord God hath spoken, who can but prophesy?" (Amos 3:8). "Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed" (Revelation 5:5).

The lion has roared; then who will not fear?
Who would not heed it if they were so warned?
The Lord God has spoken; who will not hear?
Yet many won't read it; God's Word is so scorned!

Yet Jesus prevailed, when He came to the earth,
Bringing salvation by the blood of His cross.
In heaven He's hailed for His power and worth;
In hell, lamentation for their infinite loss.
