<div class="lyrics">
|
|
<p>In God’s Word it is recorded<br>
|
|
That this world will not endure;<br>
|
|
Then while time is yet afforded<br>
|
|
Make your hope of heaven sure;<br>
|
|
For the stars, before the morning,<br>
|
|
From their orbits may be hurled,<br>
|
|
And the moon may send a warning<br>
|
|
That tonight will end the world.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">If tonight should end the world,<br>
|
|
If tonight should end the world,<br>
|
|
Would your soul adrift be driven?<br>
|
|
Or would you set sail for heaven,<br>
|
|
If tonight should end the world?</p>
|
|
<p>O’er this question do you ponder,<br>
|
|
As the days pass swiftly by?<br>
|
|
Have you gained an interest yonder,<br>
|
|
Where the soul will never die?<br>
|
|
If the last trump should be sounded,<br>
|
|
And the blood stained banner furled,<br>
|
|
Would it bring you grief unbounded<br>
|
|
If tonight should end the world?</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>See the hands once torn and bleeding<br>
|
|
On the cross of Calvary,<br>
|
|
Reaching out with gentle pleading;<br>
|
|
Oh, poor sinner, ’tis for thee;<br>
|
|
Come, accept this great salvation,<br>
|
|
Ere to judgment you are hurled;<br>
|
|
Slight you not this invitation,<br>
|
|
For tonight may end the world.</p>

|
