Chorus:
|
Everybody gonna pray on the very last day
|
Oh when they hear that bell a-ring the world away
|
Everybody gonna pray to the heavens on the judgement day.
|
|
Well you can sing about the great king David
|
And you can preach about the wisdom of Saul
|
But the judgement falls on all mankind
|
When the trumpet sounds the call.
|
All equal and the same
|
When the Lord He calls your name
|
Get ready, brother, for that day.
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Well one day soon all men will stand
|
His word will be heeded in all the land
|
Men shall know and men shall see,
|
We all are brothers and we all are free
|
Mankind was made of clay
|
Each of us in the very same way
|
Get ready, brother, for that day
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
Oh well the law is given and the law is known,
|
A tale is told and the seed is sown,
|
From dust we came into dust we'll go,
|
You the know the Lord once told us so.
|
Each brother takes His hand,
|
Heed the meaning of the Lord's command
|
Get ready, brother, for that day.
|
|
(Chorus)

VERY LAST DAY
