THIS IS THE DAY
This is the Day
[This is the Day]
whereon the Ocean of God’s mercy
hath been manifested unto men,
[This is the Day]
[This is] the Day
in which the Day Star of His loving-kindness
hath shed its radiance upon them,
[This is the Day]
[This is] the Day
in which the clouds of His bountiful favor
have overshadowed the whole of mankind.
Now is the time
to cheer and refresh
the down-cast
through the invigorating breeze of love and fellowship,
and the living waters of friendliness and charity.
This is the Day in which mankind
can behold the Face,
and hear the Voice,
of the Promised One.
