Genuine Need of Generations Now

"The people served the LORD all the days of Joshua, and… all that generation were gathered unto their fathers: and there arose another generation after them, which knew not the LORD, nor yet the works which he had done for Israel" (Judges 2:7,10).  "Evil men understand not judgment: but they that seek the LORD understand all things" (Proverbs 28:5).  "And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man… the flood came, and destroyed them all" (Luke 17:26,27). 

There is a need to now impart

A hunger in this generation

To seek the Lord with all their heart

And to proclaim His great salvation. 

The great deception of our day

Has left the multitudes perplexed,

As generations go astray

And pass confusion to the next. 

There is a clear and present danger

That generations which we raise 
May count the Lord to be a Stranger

When they arise beyond our days. 

O Lord, these days are very dark,

As in the days of Noah's pleading,

But You are like the mighty ark

Our generations now are needing.
