Lululu... |
| [02:09.35] |
|
| [02:11.42] |
O for a voice like thunder, |
| [02:15.77] |
and a tongue to drown the throat of war! |
| [02:20.99] |
When the senses are shaken, |
| [02:22.38] |
and the soul is driven to madness, |
| [02:24.88] |
Who can stand? |
| [02:28.24] |
When the souls of the oppressed |
| [02:30.04] |
Fight in the troubled air that rages, |
| [02:33.06] |
Who can stand? |
| [02:35.16] |
When the whirlwind of fury comes from the throne of God |
| [02:39.07] |
When the frowns of his countenance |
| [02:40.48] |
Drive the nations together, |
| [02:42.60] |
Who can stand? |
| [02:44.47] |
When Sin claps his broad wings over the battle, |
| [02:47.79] |
And sails rejoicing in the flood of Death; |
| [02:50.92] |
When souls are torn to everlasting fire, |
| [02:54.25] |
And fiends of Hell rejoice upon the slain, |
| [02:58.33] |
O who can stand? |
| [03:02.84] |
O who hath caused this? |
| [03:06.24] |
O who can answer at the throne of God? |
| [03:11.12] |
The Kings and Nobles of the Land have done it! |
| [03:14.32] |
Hear it not, Heaven, thy Ministers have done it! |
| [03:19.19] |
|
| [04:04.21] |
|
| [04:23.53] |
