What an awful day (repeat)
When the judgement comes, (repeat)
And the sinners hear (repeat)
Their eternal doom, (repeat)
At the sad decree (repeat)
they`ll depart for aye, (repeat)
Into endless woe (repeat)
And gloomless woe and gloom.
Chorus:
I`m paying now (repeat)
the penalty, (repeat)
The unredeemed (that the unredeemed)
Must ever pay; (repeat)
Though for help I cry (repeat)
It`s now in vain, (repeat)
For alas I`m doomed (repeat)
for aye (I`m doomed for aye).
If I could recall (repeat)
all the years now gone (repeat)
For my Savior`s cause, (repeat)
I would spend each one; (repeat)
But they ne`er again (repeat)
can to me return, (repeat)
And the task is left, and my task
Is left undone (it`s left undone).
Chorus:
Oh I realize (repeat)
but alas too late (repeat)
What a dark mistake (repeat)
all my life has been, (repeat)
I refused his live (repeat)
with a various heart, (repeat)
And I must pay (repeat)
the price of sin (repeat).
Chorus:
