[Remembrance] This second letter awakens the mind Remember the prophets and words left behind The scoffers will ask, where is promise or sign? The fathers are sleeping and all keeps its time [Creation Refrain] By the word were the heavens and earth out of water By water the former world perished in flood The same spoken word holds the present for judgment No calendar weakens the purpose of God [Mercy Chorus] The Lord is not slack concerning His promise A day and a thousand are held in His sight He waits with great patience, not willing that any Should perish, but turn from the dark to the light [Day Movement] The Day of the Lord will come as a thief The heavens pass over, the elements release The earth and its works will be brought to the fire What manner of people should wholly desire? [Promise Bridge] Look for new heavens and earth made anew A dwelling of righteousness, faithful and true Be found without spot and at peace in His grace Count His longsuffering salvation's wide space [Final Chorus] The Day of the Lord will come So guard against error that carries away Grow in the grace and the knowledge of Jesus To Him be the glory forever and day
