A grievous thing
«

October 06, 2005, 07:52:33 PM »
The world is on its death bed
And
All hidden things
Shall now be made seen
Prepare yourself
For
A grievous thing
Make yourself aware of
The earthquakes
Storms
`Hot and cold weather
Volcanic eruptions and the raging seas
The gates has been open for pestilence and poverty
Prepare yourself
For
A grievous thing
The hour has come
And your hearts will fear
The Shock of the hour
Is very near
It’s coming to your home
It’s coming to your town
The walls of that mysterious Babylon are coming down
A wise man will storeth his food
And teach himself to pray habitually
Cause the things that you see and experience will make your soul
Grieve
Prepare yourself
For
A grievous thing
Streets of war
Streets filled with blood
No justice
No peace
No clean water
No food to eat
On that day men will appear drunken but they will not be drunk
And all with child will lay their burden down and flee
Prepare yourself
For
A grievous thing
The church will no longer be a safe haven
Cause it will be the first place the Devil will flee
And he will attempt to pull all down to his side
And in the fire you will abide .
By the time surely
Man is in lost
Cause he refuses heed the words
Of those whom came before thee
Clear arguments
Were made to be understood so plain
but the message we did not want
We tossed it aside
Cause in our heart we said
“This is the past and it does not fit me this is the 21st centenary”
But I summit to you beloved that God does not change and
As it was in the time of Lot
So shall the end be
Prepare yourself
For
A grievous thing
