Because of a radioative leak, noone of the children is able to get to an adult age, they just stay on this station, fight against Magog and wait for their messias, who is in their opinion, Dylan Hunt. But he doesn't even guess, what the holy mission is...

Title
- The title of the episode comes from the first verse of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic":
Mine eyes have seen the glory
Of the coming of the Lord;
He is trampling out the vintage
Where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning
Of His terrible swift sword;
His truth is marching on.
