E
For fear the hearts of men are failing,
A E
for these are latter days we know.
The Great Depression now is spreading,
B7 E
God's word declared it would be so.
E
I'm going where there's no depression,
A E
to the lovely land that's free from care.
I'll leave this world of toil and trouble,
B7 E
my home's in Heaven, I'm going there.
E
In that bright land, there'll be no hunger,
A E
no orphan children cryin' for bread,
no weeping widows, toil or struggle,
B7 E
no shrouds, no coffins, and no death
Chorus
E
This dark hour of midnight nearing,
A E
tribulation time will come.
The storm will hurl the midnight fears,
B7 E
and sweep lost millions to their doom.
Chorus
