(单词翻译:双击或拖选)

O for a voice like thunder， and a tongue

To drown the throat of war！ When the senses

Are shaken， and the soul is driven to madness，

Who can stand？ When the souls of the oppressèd

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 countenance¹

Drive the nations together， who can stand？

When Sin claps his broad wings over the battle，

And sails rejoicing in the flood of Death；

When souls are torn to everlasting² fire，

And fiends of Hell rejoice upon the slain³，

O who can stand？ O who hath causèd this？

O 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！
