The Lord Comes to Save

MP3 Music Playlist: 

St Peter tells us in the first century about the Lord's coming.  2Peter 3: 3-10 
3 Above all, you must understand that in the last days, scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. 4 They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” 8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord, a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare.


You give your cup to all your children
to share in your passion, death, and resurrection
For us to bring your salvation
To all who thirst and hunger for you
REFRAIN

The Father gives all judgment to the Son
As he is also the son of man
He comes to judge each one of us
With perfect justice and divine mercy

He will judge us who’ll die today
Our weakness he knows   and how we stray
To him we’ll come who knows all things
All we’ve said and done or failed to do
             
We will acknowledge  all he shows us
We will see all the grace he gave us
To become who he willed us to be                                
We’ll see how we choose our destiny
REFRAIN

You said read the signs of the times
Signs of your divine conspiracy
For saving,  those (of us)
Who, accept your gracious mercy

You give judgment for us each day
When you comfort or admonish us
When you warn or bless us
Through your word, saints, and holy church
REFRAIN

It’s in the creed - you’ll come again
To judge the living and the dead
We wait in joyful hope as we do
The work you call us to (do)

Some say it’s been way too long
That you will not come again
The humble poor and oppressed
Cry out in truth O Lord come again
REFRAIN

A day is like a thousand years to you
You keep your promise in truth
In your divine time, you will save
All who’ll accept your divine mercy

You give your cup to all your children
 to share in your passion, death, and resurrection
For us to bring your salvation
To all who thirst and hunger for you
