Poetry by Rudy Wiegand
The God of the Whole Earth
Isaiah 54:5
With scorning they take
His Holy Name
And scathingly rake
His matchless fame:
But briefly their rage
They will out-spew
There cometh an Age
With ALL THINGS NEW:
And in that glorious day...
"The God Of The Whole Earth"
Shall He be called!
Name hidden from ages:
The Mystery Stalled-
Name Fearful in Majesty:
Terribly unfurled,
Now demands homage,
Throughout all the world!
The God Of Judgment
Hated by men!
All the impenitent,
Lovers of sin:
We will not have Him
Reign in our land
Our lips are our own
Our life's in our hand.
But in that glorious day...
"The God Of The Whole Earth"
Shall He be called!
Name hidden from ages:
The Mystery Stalled-
Name Fearful in Majesty:
Terribly unfurled,
Now demands homage,
Throughout all the world!
The God Of the Jews
He's called today
A people cast off
Out of the way.
Who'd follow this God?
Seems treach'rous at best-
Is this really a Name
On which I can rest?
Oh, in that glorious day...
"The God Of The Whole Earth"
Shall He be called!
Name hidden from ages:
The Mystery Stalled-
Name Fearful in Majesty:
Terribly unfurled,
Now demands homage,
Throughout all the world!
This, Abraham's God,
Father of faith-
The Covenant Keeper,
Though making men wait.
Proving who verily
True Jews will be,
Though He may tarry,
Faithful is He!
Yes, in that glorious day...
"The God Of The Whole Earth"
Shall He be called!
Name hidden from ages:
The Mystery Stalled-
Name Fearful in Majesty:
Terribly unfurled,
Now demands homage,
Throughout all the world!
Some claim Him Lord;
Most, a good man.
Few know His Word,
And fewer His plan.
Redemption so grand!
Divine symphony!
Eternally planned,
The Jew and the Greek!
And in that glorious day...
"The God Of The Whole Earth"
Shall He be called!
Name hidden from ages:
The Mystery Stalled-
Name Fearful in Majesty:
Terribly unfurled,
Now demands homage,
Throughout all the world!
The call is to you,
Far off, or near-
His promise is true
Can you not hear?
Asks Christ, the Messiah,
With outstretched hands,
Whom say ye that I,
The Son of man am?
Lord, in that glorious day...
"The God Of The Whole Earth"
Shall He be called!
Name hidden from ages:
The Mystery Stalled-
Name Fearful in Majesty:
Terribly unfurled,
Now demands homage,
Throughout all the world!
