SS&S 432: AT THE FEAST OF BELSHAZZAR AND A THOUSAND OF HIS LORDS
1. At the feast of Belshazzar and a thousand of his lords
While they drank from golden vessels,
as the Book of Truth records:
In the night, as they reveled in the
royal palace hall,
They were seized with consternation
—–’twas the Hand upon the wall!
‘Tis the hand of God on the wall! . . .
‘Tis the hand of God on the wall! . . .
Shall the record be—-” Found wanting!”
Or shall it be—- “Found trusting!”
While that hand is writing on the wall? . . .
2. See the brave captive, Daniel, as he
stood before the throng,
And rebuked the haughty monarch
for his mighty deeds of wrong;
As he read out the writing—–’twas the
doom of one and all,
For the kingdom now was finished—-
said the Hand upon the wall!
3. See the faith, zeal, and courage, that
would dare to do the right,
Which the Spirit gave to Daniel—-
’twas the secret of his might;
In his home in Judea, or a captive in
the hall, [upon the wall!
He understood the writing of his God
4. So our deeds are recorded—–there’s a
Hand that’s writing now:
Sinner, give your heart to Jesus—- to
His royal mandate bow;
For the day is approaching — it must
come to one and all,
When the sinner’s condemnation will
be written on the wall!
