What Awful Darkness Shrouds All The Earth!
Hearts Sealed In Hardness, Grope On In Death.

Oh, Hear The Thunder,
Sinner In Slumber;
Will You Determine To Break The Spell,
And Not Abandon Your Soul To Hell?

Oh, Dreadful Picture! Oh, Peril’s Day!
Sleep, Darker, Deeper, Holds Deadly Sway.

Hell’s Breathing Stupor, Now Over All:
Who’ll Break The Subtle Infernal Pall?

Oh, World Of Sinners-If Not Too Late
While Hope Yet Glimmers, Flee From Your Fate.

Awake, O Sleeper, God Help You Hear;
Death Coils Around You, Your Doom Is Near.
