THE ANGER OF THE LORD
The love and mercy of the Lord, we understand;
We see much evidence of His gracious hand.
He desires to bless and to give His protection;
We have a great God of deepest affection.
There is also the Lord’s anger to comprehend;
Sadly, many do not fully appreciate God’s plan.
The anger of the Lord will serve us well, truly;
We learn how to live for the Lord uprightly.
The anger of the Lord was recorded carefully;
The Scriptures noted His judgements wisely.
God is not whimsical when it comes to anger;
There is always a reason behind each feature.
Personal sins will cause us to go astray;
These must be dealt with each day.
Sins are best confessed candidly;
The Lord will give mercy accordingly.
