Verse One: 
A                                          D           A 
Do you fear this man's invention that they call atomic power? 
                                     E 
Are we all in great confusion, do we know the time or hour 
       A                           D             A 
When a terrible explosion may ring down upon our land 
                                      E                A 
Leaving horrible destruction blotting out the works of man 

A 
Are you ready for that great atomic power? 
                                          E 
Will you rise and meet your Savior in the end? 
         A                              D              
Will you shout or will you cry when the fire rains from on high? 
        E                           A 
Are you ready for that great atomic power? 
 
A     D   A          E   A 
 
Verse Two: 
There is one way to escape and be prepared to meet the Lord 
Give your heart and soul to Jesus, He will be your shield and sword 
He will surely stand beside and you'll never taste of death 
For your soul will fly to safety and eternal peace and rest 
 
(repeat chorus) 
 
A     D   A          E   A 
 
Verse Three: 
There's an army who can conquer all the enemy's great bands 
It's a regiment of Christians guided by the Savior's hand 
When the mushroom of destruction falls and all it's fury great 
God will surely save His children from this awful, awful fate 
 
(repeat chorus) 
        E                           A 
Are you ready for that great atomic power?
