O Lord you have shown us that you are coming soon,
those of us who are vexed at this world.
And we are vexed only because you have given us that grace.
They do not face your judgment Lord,
but even they will seek shelter as your wrath towards us unfolds.
The kings of the world mock you....there is no tomorrow to them.....only today.
They count their money.....and wield the hammer,
and search each other out to give praise and receive praise.
Your prophets Lord speak in the name of someone they do not even believe in.
It is their own words that they want to hear....not yours,
and their anger is only at those who dare to question their anointing.
The demons tremble....for they also know that you are coming soon.
They are as marauders.....raiders who destroy even what they cannot take.
Fearing the day they will face....
your angels Lord....who now sit upright on their horses....silent
For they have been waiting for this day coming....hands on their swords,
Waiting only for your word....to cast the traitors into the fiery lake.
The flail is to the straw Lord....and we feel the strikes....
as we are separated from the husk.....and we fall safely....into your hand,
The turmoil around and above us....where
we can hear the holy wind....in the winnowing....but it is cold on the floor
as the cloud of chaff hides the sun.
The end of the husks are in sight....thus we know you will come soon.
