Near
Multitudes, multitudes, in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining. The LORD roars from Zion, and utters his voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earth shake. But the LORD isContinue reading “Near”
Bless the Lord!
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name.
