if the earth beneath our feet shakes
in a mega earthquake rumbles screams...
if the sky crumbles disappears in darkness
in a mega volcanic eruption ash clouds...
will faith of proud nations be panic shaken
will the few of true faith be shattered broken...
life lived is but a borrowed earth clay token
will chosen souls in paradise heaven be awoken...
those who believed in a creator God pray for their expectation salvation
in death life flatlined perished saved raised in glory personal resurrection
flesh fatigued corrupted extinguished transformed into eternal perfection
those who believed in singularity big bang everything created from nothing
from nothing everything burst into creation everything to return to nothing
expect nothing believe in death nothing an absolute return to erased nothing
