From those around, I hear a Cry,
An awful soft a hopeless sigh
I hear the footstep leaving slow,
And then I know my soul must fly….

A chilly wind begins to blow
Within my soul from head to toe
And then the last breath escapes my lips
It’s time to leave and I must go

So it’s true but it’s too late
They said each soul has its given date
When it must leave its body’s core
And meet with its eternal fate

Oh mark the word that I do say
Who knows tomorrow could be your day
At last it comes to heaven or hell
Decide which now do not delay

Come on my brother let us pray
Decide which now do not delay

Oh God Oh God, I cannot see
My eyes are blind, am I still me?
Or has my soul been led astray
And forced to pay a priceless fee?

Alas to dust we all return
And shall rejoice while others burn
If only I knew that before
The line grew short and came my turn

And now as beneath the soil
The lay me with my record flow
They cry not knowing that I cried worse
For they go home I face my god…..

Oh Mark my word that I do say
Who knows tomorrow would be your day
At last it comes to heaven or hell
Decide which now do not delay….

Come on my brother let us pray
Decide which now do not delay
