When the senses are shaken, and the soul is driven to madness, Who can stand? When the souls of the oppressed fight in the troubled air that rages, who can stand? When the whirlwind of fury comes from the Throne of God, when the frowns of His countenance drive the nations together, who can stand? Who has caused this? O for a voice like thunder, and a tongue To drown the throat of war! When the senses are shaken and the soul is drivento madness, Who can stand? When the souls of the oppressed fight in the troubled air that rages, who can stand? When the whirlwind of fury comes from theThrone of God, when the frowns of His countenance drive the nations together RECITATION II When Sin claps his broad wings over the battle, and sails rejoicing in the flood of death; When souls are torn to everlasting fire, and fiends of hell rejoice upon the slain Who has caused this? Who can stand? Who can answer at the throne of God? The Kings and Nobles of the land have done it! Hear it not, Heaven, thy ministers have done it! The Kings of the land have done it! O for a voice like thunder, and a tongue To drownthe throat of war! When the senses Are shaken,and the soul is driven to madness, O who can stand? O who has caused this? RECITATION III The Kings and the Nobles of the land have done it! Hear it not, Heaven, thy ministers have done it! The Kings of the land have done it!
