ESCAPE THE MARK
Rainbows over mountain tops
Cloaked in pure white snow.
Mighty oaks line the banks
Of winding rivers that flow.
The setting sun reflects the scene
As darkness takes its cue.
Nature sleeps through the night
To be awakened by the morning dew.
It's a beautiful world we live in
Created for the purpose of man.
With all its radiant beauty
Placed by God's own hand.
Green meadows and crystal waters
With silver stars to enhance the sky.
For it was the Master's intention
That man would never die.
A place to live forever
With no sorrow sickness or tears.
Our bodies were created
To last for eternal years.
Then sin was brought upon us
And for this all men will pay.
That's the reason for the trouble
Throughout the world today.
For brother will turn against brother
And father will turn against son.
In the beginning this was predicted
And now it's already being done.
In the scriptures we find it's written
The devil will rule the land.
By deceiving and destroying
The heart and soul of man.
Every man will be given a number
Before he can buy or sell.
This will be the order demanded
Direct from the pits of hell.
Man intends to change his ways
But for now he thinks he'll wait.
So remember the devil's number
Is for the man who waited too late.
When he awakes that horrible morning.
And finds that he's all alone.
With no one left to love him
Because the spirit of God is gone.
A cold empty void will surround him
And hatred will consume his heart.
This is only the beginning
For the hell is yet to start.
The sun in the heavens will darken
And the trees will refuse to bud.
All the world's beauty will fester
And the waters will turn to blood.
In these days that are mentioned
There'll be only terror with whom to abide.
All men must suffer His torture
For there'll be no place to hide.
Sores will cover his body
He will bleed from his head to his feet
Smoke will fill his nostrils
Caused by unbearable heat.
Mighty hailstones will be falling
With brimstone out of the sky.
Man has traded his glory
For this terrible way to die.
Fire will burst from the heavens
There'll be rivers of molten stone.
Eyes will be torn from their sockets
And the flesh will melt from the bone.
He'll scream in pain and anger
Gnashing his teeth each breath.
He will beg for the mountains to crush him.
And plead for the pleasure of death.
Before these last days of horror
With all this hell on earth.
Take heed to what has been written
Or curse the day of your birth.
All these things will happen
Faster than the eye can blink.
Heed these warnings, Mister
It may be later than you think.
The Lord is returning for His people
He will appear from out of the east.
If He leaves without you, Mister
Then it's you and the mark of the beast.
