Terror in the Night
June 7th, 2007
Scribe: Priscilla Van Sutphin
I sing a song about tears and laughter,
I sing a song about the hereafter.
Love and mercy, truth and justice have been laid aside
Cups of wrath have filled up on the inside.
But here comes a cup, it is turned upside down
Wreaking havoc, on the other side of town.
Faith has run weak in many a pew,
The faithful chosen are yet but a few.
Love lays lost in a closet of despair
Many are wondering if I’m really there.
Seeing so much that brings heart to woe
Is hard on My beloveds, so here comes the snow…
I speak metaphorically, of course, and that is hard.
But I know those whose hearts have been dealt a difficult card.
In many nations the people starve and bleed.
While here men have gone crazy for entertainment and greed.
I’m not unaware as many do think.
So I’m waiting for those who will cause a big stink.
I look for the one who gets righteously discontent.
I listen to the one whose passion is intense.
I hear the one who is crying in their bed.
I see those starving for more of Me, they have said.
I’m coming down to shake the heavens and earth.
But will you be glad or be filled with mirth ?
The glory is not what many do think.
It’s not something to play with, or to just take a drink.
Drinks are for sharing…
Drinks are for caring
What happens to others is important to ME.
But will the blind eyes open and be glad to see thee ?
You know I said that faith would wain.
Don’t be discouraged by the hate and disdain.
Keep your eyes on Your KING,
For to your heart I will bring
Days filled with laughter and hope of which to sing
For all the startling miracles will forthwith spring.
People will be in confusion and hoping for relief.
I will comfort the broken, with your arms subdue grief.
Open your heart and open your homes,
For the lost will come running, as the sirens do groan.
Do not be cast down, nor feel the pain of the wicked.
Easy I know to say, but I’m heralding a new day.
A DAY OF FREEDOM like you have never before seen.
A day of restoration and great GRACE for those who are lean.
I’m filling you up on the inside with more of ME.
The same you will never again be !
A new thing springs forth in this hour you see.
Ever fruitful will I make your soul, like a tree.
Leaves for the nations to be poured out in their souls
Open your heart and I will fill your mouth !
I will make you My jewels, sparkly and clean.
I am polishing and shining bright, like no one’s ever seen.
Fire it consumes
I turn up the flame
Higher and higher you will go
Till you GO in MY NAME.
