THE LAST TRUMPET

THE LAST TRUMPET

.....TOLU' ELUSIYAN


Arise oh dry bones
Listen to the sound of the horn
The rhythms of the trumpet
The last of its kind

Awake oh ye who slumber
Come forth from the darkness of the grave
All who lie low
For the trumpet screams from above

Look up
See the triumphant coming of the cherubim
Hear, the beautiful voices of the Seraphim
Acclaiming He
Who seats upon the throne
Hosanna they say
to the holiest of holies

Listen, all you nations
All you slaves and free born
Rich and poor alike
Pay attention
All ye Peoples
For it’s the dawn of justice
The dawn of a new beginning
A beginning without end

Hear the loud sound of the trumpet
The last of its kind
Announcing the day of harvest
A day when we all reap what we have sown

Woe to you
Whose crops the sun has dried up
Woe to you
Whose crops have been flooded by the sea
Alas!!! To you
Whose crops has been sold
For you shall account for every one of the seedlings
Here the loud sound of the trumpet
