The actual passage chosen is Isaiah 24. We don’t know when it was written. The description of the earth died up and withered sounds like the future with the effects of climate change. At the very end there is a verse which speaks fo teh Lord being king on earth. But I think we need to stay with teh reality of the coming desolation and have to find some and of hope within that – perhaps that The Holy and Eternal One is greater than our world.
