RIP VAN WINKLE GONNA SLEEP FOREVER
|
GONNA SLEEP HIS LIFE AWAY
|
RIP VAN WINKLE DON'T KNOW THE SAVIOR
|
GONNA SLEEP THROUGH JUDGMENT DAY
|
|
Open up your eyes, wake up and smell the napalm
|
The sky is filled with smoke and you're covered up in ash
|
The dead are all around you and the saints have gone to Glory
|
But you fell asleep and now you're all alone
|
|
You wander through the rubble looking for a sign of life
|
You're hoping that just maybe you will run across your wife
|
Your children or your neighbors, but they're either dead or gone
|
Then you come across some pages that are scattered 'cross the lawn
|
You start to read one of them thinking maybe it's a clue
|
But it's just from a Bible that had once belonged to you
|
One time you'd been a Christian, or maybe so you thought
|
But later in your life you decided you were not
|
You were nice to your neighbor, you were good to your wife
|
But a God you could not see or hear was sure not worth your life
|
You thought He was a legend, Jesus Christ was just a fake
|
But now you look around and wonder why you weren't awake
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
So many people think that Jesus Christ is make-believe
|
They only trust the things that they can touch or hear or see
|
But just because you don't believe don't mean that it's not there
|
And when your life and soul's at stake, you'd better just beware
|
So if you're Rip Van Winkle, thinking that you've got it made
|
Just give your heart to Jesus and WAKE UP!!! before it's too late
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
