[F]
I dreamed that the great judgment [Bb] morning [F] had dawned and the trumpet [C]
had blown.
I
[F] dreamed that all nations [Bb]
had gathered to
[F] judgment [C] before the [F] white throne.
From the throne came a bright [Bb] shining angel and [F]
stood on the land [C] and the sea
And
[F] swore with his hand [Bb] raised toward heaven that [Dm]
[F] time [C] was no longer [F] to be.
[Dm] [C]
[F] And all while [Dm] weeping [Bb] and wailing as [F] the world were told [C] of their fate
They
[F] cried for the rocks [Bb] and the mountains.
They [F] prayed [C] but their prayers were [F] too late.
[Bm] [G] Oh
[C] [G]
[C] the rich man was there but [F] his money had [C]
melted and [G] vanished away.
A [C] pauper he stood in [F] the judgment.
[C] His debts were [G] too heavy [C] to pay.
Now the great man was there [F] but his greatness when [C] death came was left [G] far behind.
[C] The angel then opened [Gm]
[F] all the records not
[C] a trace [G] of his greatness
[C] could find.
The [G] widow was there with [C] the orphan.
God [G] heard and remembered [D] their cries.
[G] No sorrow in heaven
[C] forever.
Oh [G] God wipe [D] all the tears from [G] their eyes.
The gambler was there [C] and the drunkard [G] and the man that had sold them [D] the dream.
With [G] the people who gave them [C]
the license [G] all together [D] in hell they [G]
did sing.
[E] The [A]
moral man came [D] to the judgment but [A] his self-righteous rights would [E] not do.
The [A]
man who had crucified [D]
Jesus had [A]
passed off [E] as moral [A] man too.
The soul that had put off [D]
salvation.
Oh [A] not tonight.
I'll get saved by [E] and by.
[A] No time now to think of [D] religion.
At [A] last [E] they had found [A] time to die.
And oh what a weeping [D] and wailing.
[A] As the lost they were told of [E] their fate.
[A] They cried for the rocks and [D] the mountains.
[A] Oh they prayed but [E] their prayers were [A] too late.
They [Gbm] prayed but [E] their prayers were too late.
