THE FOUR WINDS OF THE HEAVENS

They often go forth from His presence
As they blow on earth with power and might
When they are charged by the Master
Receiving orders from our Father
His words they follow to obey
As He sends forth His word to heal us
They protect and carry it that we be delivered from destruction
For His angels are ministering spirits
Sending them forth as winds of heaven
To accomplish the will of our Creator
Towards perfecting the mortal men
Into His vessel of honour and glory
They proceed as His servants on earth
Presented as flames of fire
To consume and devour the evil work
Burning the chaff from the wheat
That we His children might reflect His glory untainted
Declaring His work undefiled
The emblem of His majestic strength and victory
To radiate the fragrance of His splendid fame
As His angels come forth from the heavens
Approaching the face of earth as
The four winds of the heavens.
