ZEPHANIAH – The Day Is Near by Bro H
Verse 1 — The Indictment I will sweep the land, remove it all Man and beast, I will make them fall Birds of heaven, fish of the sea All that offends, cut off by Me You turned aside, you would not hear You mixed My name with idols here You said in heart, “He will not act” Now I arise — I answer that Chorus The day is near, the day is close A day of wrath, a day of blows Trouble and ruin, fire and fear The sound of war — the day is here Verse 2 — The Corruption On every roof, the heavens you praise Yet speak My name in crooked ways You filled your houses, fraud and spoil Violence hidden beneath your toil You settled down, at ease in wine Saying, “All is well, all is fine” But I will search with lamp and flame And call to account every hidden name Chorus The day is near, the day is close A day of wrath, a day of blows Darkness and trumpet, clouds appear No one escapes — the day is here Verse 3 — The Collapse You built your houses — you won’t remain You planted vineyards — you won’t drink wine Your silver and gold will not defend When I bring fire upon the land You’ll walk as blind, though light was shown You chose your path — you stand alone Your blood like dust upon the ground When judgment speaks, no mercy found Bridge — The Turning Seek Me now while time is left Seek what’s right, turn from your steps Humble hearts may yet be kept Hidden when the fire is sent Final Chorus — The day is near… it will not wait I rise to judge, I seal the fate But those who seek, who walk sincere Shall stand preserved… when I appear Outro — I will remove what stands opposed I will restore what I have chosen In the fire, the truth made clear I am the Lord… the day is near
