The signs that those with eyes can't see
Abound throughout the earth.
They're noted in the many wars
That bring despair to birth.
Diseases scourge the young and old
As famine walks about.
And men of faith are shown disdain
By crowds that feed on doubt.
These were foretold to mark our time
As signs of dreadful days
When brazen men would scorn the truth
And seek their selfish ways.
They fail to see these lucid signs
But cling to blatant lies.
They slander God, whom they despise—
The path to their demise.
Though others may ignore the signs,
We know God's word is light.
And so we see the prophecies
With faith, which gives us sight.
So firmly guard your precious faith,
For he who brought the lie
Will tempt a weakened heart to doubt
And cause his hope to die.
Exert yourself to reach the prize—
The day we've longed to see!
And we will live forevermore—
So joyous we will be!
