In the great book of John - you're warned of the day |
|
When you'll be laid - beneath the cold [clay |
|
The Angel of Death - will come from the sky |
|
And claim your poor soul - when the time comes to die. |
|
When The Angel of Death - comes down after you |
|
Can you smile and say - that you have been true |
|
Can you truthfully say - with your dying breath |
|
That you're ready to meet - the Angel of death. |
|
When the lights all grow dim - and the dark shadows creep |
|
And then your loved ones - are gathered to weep |
|
Can you face them and say - with your dying breath |
|
That you're ready to meet - the Angel of Death. |
|
When The Angel of Death - comes down after you |
|
Can you smile and say - that you have been true |
|
Can you truthfully say - with your dying breath |
|
That you're ready to meet - the Angel of death. |
