Prepare to meet your God (Amos 4:12f, 5:24)

Original Music: Breathe on Me, Breath of God; Robert Jackson, 1840-1914
Alternate song: Make me a captive, Lord

Prepare to meet your God,
His judgments all are true.
There’s not one right or rule to claim,
Religion that knows not You.

Prepare to meet your God,
While He may still be found.
His mercy will not be presumed,
His justice like rain, come down.

Prepare to meet your God,
For He who says what’s good.
The counsel of His own delight,
No creature has understood.

Prepare to meet your God,
Nothing but faith will do.
Without true faith in what He gave,
Salvation will turn from you.

Who is this Lord, that speaks,
The God of hosts His name.
Prepare to meet your God and King,
Before His holy fame.
