And I heard, as it were, the noise of thunder
|
||
|
|
One of the four beasts saying, "Come and see"
|
||
|
|
And I saw, and behold a white horse
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There's a man going around taking names
|
||
|
|
And he decides who to free and who to blame
|
||
|
|
Everybody won't be treated all the same
|
||
|
|
There will be a golden ladder reaching down
|
||
|
|
When the man comes around
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The hairs on your arm will stand up
|
||
|
|
At the terror in each sip and in each sup
|
||
|
|
Will you partake of that last offered cup?
|
||
|
|
Or disappear into the potter's ground?
|
||
|
|
When the man comes around
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
|
||
|
|
One hundred million angels singing
|
||
|
|
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
|
||
|
|
Voices calling and voices crying
|
||
|
|
Some are born and some are dying
|
||
|
|
It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
|
||
|
|
The virgins are all trimming their wicks
|
||
|
|
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
|
||
|
|
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
'Til Armageddon, no shalam, no shalom
|
||
|
|
Then the father hen will call his chickens home
|
||
|
|
The wise man will bow down before the throne
|
||
|
|
And at his feet, they'll cast the golden crowns
|
||
|
|
When the man comes around
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still
|
||
|
|
Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still
|
||
|
|
Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still
|
||
|
|
Listen to the words long written down
|
||
|
|
When the man comes around
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers
|
||
|
|
One hundred million angels singing
|
||
|
|
Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum
|
||
|
|
Voices calling and voices crying
|
||
|
|
Some are born and some are dying
|
||
|
|
It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree
|
||
|
|
The virgins are all trimming their wicks
|
||
|
|
The whirlwind is in the thorn tree
|
||
|
|
It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In measured hundredweight and penny pound
|
||
|
|
When the man comes around
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts
|
||
|
|
And I looked and behold, a pale horse
|
||
|
|
And his name that sat on him was Death
|
||
|
|
And Hell followed with him
|
||
|
|
|
