This world can't stand too long
Be ready don't wait too late
We should know it can't stand long
For it is too full of hate

For a long time this world has stood
Gets more wicked every day
The maker who created it
Surely won't let it stand this way

This world can't stand long
Be ready don't wait too late
We should know it can't stand long
For it is too full of hate

This world been destroyed before
Cause it is too full of sin
For that very reason
It will be destroyed again

This world it can't stand long
Be ready don't wait too late
We should know it can't stand long
For it is too full of hate

'f we only give our hearts to God
Let Him lead us by the hand
Nothing in this world to fear
He'll lead you 'cro the burning sand

This world it can't stand long
Be ready don't wait too late
We should know it can't stand long
For it is too full of hate

This world it can't stand long
Be ready don't wait too late
We should know it can't stand long
For it is too full of hate

(a cappella  with drums):
This world it can't stand long
Be ready don't wait too late
We should know it can't stand long
For it is too full of hate
