127 God Has Revealed His Entire Disposition in the Last Days
Verse 1
From the world’s creation to the present day,
God’s Spirit’s set in motion work which is great,
different work has been done in different ages,
with new work performed in different nations.
In each age men see His different dispositions,
as shown in His work which in each age is different.
Pre-chorus 1
For two thousand years, on earth
He could lead men as they lived.
He could also save corrupt humankind,
redeem them from all their sin.
Chorus
He is God filled with mercy,
filled with lovingkindness;
for men He’s a sin offering
and a shepherd to guide them;
but for men He also serves as a curse,
He is their Chastiser, He is their Judge.
Verse 2
He is able to conquer humankind today,
under His dominion He has them prostrate;
men had not known God but now they submit fully.
He’ll burn away what’s unclean ultimately,
destroying all the things which are unrighteous
within humans throughout the universe.
Pre-chorus 2
This shows He’s not just a God of love,
merciful and wise and wondrous,
He’s not only a holy God,
He is also a God that judges.
Chorus
He is God filled with mercy,
filled with lovingkindness;
for men He’s a sin offering
and a shepherd to guide them;
but for men He also serves as a curse,
He is their Chastiser, He is their Judge.
Bridge
To those people who are evil,
He is burning, punishment, judgment;
to those who are to be perfected,
He is trials, tribulation, refinement,
He also gives pruning, dealing, words,
He is comfort and He gives sustenance.
But to those whom He casts out,
He is retribution and punishment.
Chorus
He is God filled with mercy,
filled with lovingkindness;
for men He’s a sin offering
and a shepherd to guide them;
but for men He also serves as a curse,
He is their Chastiser, He is their Judge.
