The World That Was

When I traveled the world from continent to continent

       seen all the fossils, high and low:

Animals and our ancient ancestors buried in muck and mud

       walked on glaciers, seen the ocean’s floor,

Been to the peaks of the Andes, and on Cape Horn

To the ends of the earth, North and South—

To me it becomes quite obvious, it is God’s testimony

       to man,  should he feel he’s alone!

On the other hand, should he not be feared or revered…

One who is able to destroy the earth and nearly all that

       is on it, with a twist of his finger with water and sand:

Once angered by the filth of man, has something coming!

Thus, he can surly destroy the earth and man and his

       soul, ONCE again.

Incasing all man, back within the sediments of earth

       and sand, once and for all, from whence he came from.

There awaits an even more terrible fate for man, of this

       present age, who refuse Him respect,

       who disregards His warnings from the Heavens:

What is eternal fire, what can be compared to it?

Of that day, the heavens will pass away— with a great

       roar, with intense heat, and the earth will be

Scorched, and melted, like a candle and burnt meat…
