Lyrics
The word of the LORD which came to Zephaniah I will utterly consume all things from off the face of the earth
I will consume man and beast I will consume the fowls of the heavens I will make man more rare than the gold of Ophir
I will stretch out my hand on Judah And on all the inhabitants of Jerusalem I will cut off the Baal from this place The name of the priests with the priests
And them that have turned back from the LORD And those that have not sought the LORD
Hold your peace at the presence of the LORD God For the day of the LORD is at hand The LORD has prepared a sacrifice He has consecrated his guests
A day of wrath is that day A day of trouble and distress A day of wasteness and desolation A day of darkness and gloominess
A day of clouds and thick darkness A day of the trumpet and alarm Against the fortified cities Against the high battlements
I will bring distress on men They will walk like blind men Their blood shall be poured out as dust Their flesh as the dung
