I dreamed that the great judgement
morning Had dawned, and the trumpet had blown; I dreamed that
the nations had gathered To judgement before the white
throne.
From the throne came a bright shining
angel And stood on the land and the sea, And swore with his
hand raised to heaven, That time was no longer to be.
And O, what weeping and
wailing. As the lost were told of their fate; They cried for
the rocks and the mountains, They prayed, but their prayers were
too late.
The rich man was
there, but his money Had melted and vanished away;
A pauper stood there in the
judgement, His debts were too many to pay.
The great
man was there, but his greatness When death came was left far
behind; The angel that opened the records, No trace of his
greatness could find.
The widow was there and the
orphans, God heard and remembered their cries, No sorrow in
heaven forever, God wiped all tears from their
eyes.
The gambler was there and the drunkard, And
they who had sold them the drink, With people who gave him the
License Together in hell they did sink.
And O, what weeping and
wailing. As the lost were told of their fate; They cried for
the rocks and the mountains, They prayed, but their prayers were
too late.
The moral man came to
the judgement, But self righteous rags would not
do;
The men who had crucified Jesus Had passed off
as moral men, too.
The souls that had put off
salvation, “Not tonight; I’ll get saved by and by; No time now
to think of religion” At last they found time to
die.
And O, what weeping and
wailing. As the lost told were of their fate; They cried for
the rocks and the mountains, They prayed, but their prayers were
too late.
