"Thou hast maintained my right and my cause; Thou satest in the throne judging right.... The Lord shall endure forever: He hath prepared His throne for judgment. And He shall judge the world in righteousness; He shall minister judgment to the people in uprightness. The Lord also will be a Refuge... for Thou, Lord hast not forsaken them that seek Thee. Sing praises to the Lord.... The Lord is known by the judgment which He executeth" (Psalm 9:4-16). "Grudge not one against another, brethren... behold, the Judge standeth before the door" (James 5:9).
The Lord is seated on His throne.
He always judges right.
He watches over all His own.
They're precious in His sight.
This Judge is coming back to earth.
Behold, He's at the door.
He will not come in humble birth.
As He did once before.
He'll come in glory in the sky,
To gather first his own.
In just the twinkling of an eye,
We'll know Him as we're known.
Then He'll come with all His saints.
To reign a thousand years.
Let this prospect purge complaints
And brush away our fears:
"Amazing grace!" we shall proclaim,
When earth is done with strife.
We'll praise the Judge who wrote our name
Within His book of life.
