The Works of God
Lord, we look forward to the day when Your kingdom will come in all its fullness: The wolf will dwell with the lamb, and the leopard will lie down with the goat, and the calf and the lion and the yearling together, and a little child will lead them. The cow will feed with the bear; Their young will lie down together, and the lion will eat straw like the ox. The infant will play near the hole of the cobra, and the young child will put his hand into the viper’s hole. They will neither harm nor destroy on all Your holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of You, O Lord, as the waters cover the sea. (Isaiah 11:6–9)
The heavens will vanish like smoke; The earth will wear out like a garment, and its inhabitants will die in the same way. But Your salvation, O Lord, will last forever, and Your righteousness will never fail. (Isaiah 51:6)
