What an awful day (repeat) |
|
When the judgement comes, (repeat) |
|
And the sinners hear (repeat) |
|
Their eternal doom, (repeat) |
|
At the sad decree (repeat) |
|
they'll depart for aye, (repeat) |
|
Into endless woe (repeat) |
|
And gloomless woe and gloom. |
|
Chorus: |
|
I'm paying now (repeat) |
|
the penalty, (repeat) |
|
The unredeemed (that the unredeemed) |
|
Must ever pay; (repeat) |
|
Though for help I cry (repeat) |
|
It's now in vain, (repeat) |
|
For alas I'm doomed (repeat) |
|
for aye (I'm doomed for aye). |
|
If I could recall (repeat) |
|
all the years now gone (repeat) |
|
For my Savior's cause, (repeat) |
|
I would spend each one; (repeat) |
|
But they ne'er again (repeat) |
|
can to me return, (repeat) |
|
And the task is left, and my task |
|
Is left undone (it's left undone). |
|
Chorus: |
|
Oh I realize (repeat) |
|
but alas too late (repeat) |
|
What a dark mistake (repeat) |
|
all my life has been, (repeat) |
|
I refused his live (repeat) |
|
with a various heart, (repeat) |
|
And I must pay (repeat) |
|
the price of sin (repeat). |
