Someday the Lord will come again 
   To take His vengeance on sinful men 
For rejecting the gift of His Dear Son 
   And for wicked deeds which they have done 

His death on the cross they've counted naught 
   Neither forgiveness from sin nor cleansing sought 
No man knoweth the day nor the hour 
   When Christ will come in flaming fire 

But He told his disciples in days of old 
   To watch, for signs that would surely unfold 
That before his return upon this earth 
   Evil men would wax worse and worse 

There will be first a falling away 
   Before that great and terrible day! 
"Many will run to and fro." 
   A present sign we all do know 

False Christs and prophets shall both arise 
   Their lying wonders will many surprise 
There will be wars, commotions, and rumors too 
   Droughts, famines, and pestilences new 

While troubles surge on every hand 
   The Jews will go back to their land 
Their old wasted desert that everyone knows 
   Will flourish and blossom like a rose 

As in the days of Noah so shall it be 
   A time of woe and misery 
Such awful distress among nations 
   Will surpass all time since creation! 

Even father, mother, sister, and brother 
   Will decieve, betray and kill one another! 
No flesh on earth can be saved 
   Except the Lord shorten those days 

Fear will be seen on many faces 
   As the earth quakes in divers places; 
Some shall weep, while others wail 
   Knees will tremble and hearts fail! 

Signs in the sun, the stars, and the moon 
   Will signify that Christ is coming soon! 
Yet the following two events on earth, must be 
   Before His sign in Heaven we see: 

The Blessed Gospel must be hurled 
   To every nation around the world 
No one shall suffer the plagues and strife 
   Whose name is enrolled in the Lamb's Book of Life. 

All sleeping saints shall arise from the ground 
   When they hear the last trumpet sound 
Those living will be changed at the wink of an eye 
   And meet their Lord up in the sky. 

The Lord Himself in infinite love 
   Will take all Christians to Heaven above 
That day will not come till He raptures His bride 
   Though sinners disbelieve and even deride. 

Then upon earth, the dreadful tribulation 
   Will fall on all creation. 
The Bible has warned you, dear folk- 
   There will be thundering, lightning, vapor, and smoke! 

The sun now so bright and fair 
   Will then become as black as sackcloth of hair! 
Hail shall fall exceedingly great 
   To punish men for their wickedness sake. 

Grevious sores shall fall on men 
   But they'll repent not from all their sin; 
Scorched with heat they'll blaspheme God's name 
   And gnaw their tongues in awful pain! 

Locusts from the pit with stings in their tail 
   For long, long months shall men assail 
Waters already turned to blood 
   Will be made bitter by the star Wormwood 

Men will long their deaths to see 
   But death itself will only flee 
Sinner, just think how you will feel 
   When this old world begins to rock and reel. 

You'll think of God's love that you have spurned 
   When the big round moon to blood is turned! 
The stars will fall and the earth will quake 
   But too late, the Lord, you refuse to make! 

The earth shall fall like a chased roe, 
   And then you will find no place to go- 
The Bible says you will call 
   For the rocks and mountains upon you to fall: 

" Hide us from the face of the Lamb, 
   The Great Day of His wrath is come, who is able to stand?" 
You'll fear to look on the Savior's face 
   Because you rejected His mercy and grace. 

In darkness of Hell your soul will be cast 
   Where memories dieth not but forever will last! 
No begging, no crying, nothing will gain 
   Relief from the torture and of your burning pain 

O trust the Lord before it's too late 
  And shun your doom from the burning lake!
