Burning Eyes

Burning Eyes

(Micah 7:7-10)

I have ordained my burning eyes

to watch; the Lord must soon arise

and bear salvation forth. He comes

and, faithful, hears my yearning cries!

Take no delight, mine enemy.

Though I should fall, these eyes yet see

what deep'ning shadows cannot veil:

I mount, alight eternally!

For sin I bear His wrath, and right,

yet He will draw me into Light,

will plead for me His righteousness,

and render justice in His sight!

Lay low your eyes, fool foe, in shame,

and still that tongue which mocks my claim.

These eyes will see you trampled down

as filth beneath His promised Name!
