Weeping And Waiting

Bertram H. Shadduck

[Verse 1]
From the throne came a bright, shining angel
And stood on the land and the sea
And swore with his [hand raised] to Heaven
That time was no longer to be

[Chorus]
And, oh, what a weeping and wailing
When the lost were told of their fate
They cried to the rocks and the mountains
They prayed, but their prayer was too late

[Verse 2]
The drunkard was there with his whiskey
And the man who that sold him the drink
The rich man was there with his money
Together with hell they did sing

[Chorus]
And, oh, what a weeping and wailing
When the lost were told of their fate
They cried to the rocks and the mountains
They prayed, but their prayer was too late

[Humming]
