Lovers Of Themselves

Last of the last days now appear,

The signs attend all around;

For men have now cast off all fear,

Few with true fear are now found.

Chorus:

In these last times,

In these last times

Of the saints upon this ground;

In these last times,

In these last times

Of the saints upon this ground.

Little is sought for God's honor

To hold His name above all;

For we are coming to the hour

Of the great and of the small

Which Paul speaks of:

To the great and final fall.

Chorus:

Few it seems, care for God's glory-

Care only to seek their own;

Lie therein til they grow hoary,

Led by this report alone;

To our wonder

In their reckless course go on.

Chorus:

Led by their own vain delusion

Now the Word of God defy;

Here they cry in wild confusion,

Caring not for He that's high.

Cannot worship

He that makes the heavens fly.

Chorus:

Love of self will brave this ocean,

And from the truth it will fly;

Dead, amidst the heav'nly motion

Will not seek to God draw nigh.

Stand with wonder

At these whose Hand they defy.

Chorus:

Due to God is all the glory

And to us there is due none;

Opposite the oratory

Of those who would this truth shun;

Pause in wonder

How the world with this does run.

Chorus:

He that made the starry heavens

Is worthy of all our love;

This truth shall stand through the aeons -

Is now sung by those above.

O! with wonder

O! with wonder

May my soul view more thereof.

O! with wonder

O! with wonder

May my soul view more thereof.
