When the angel comes knocking on your door Oh my children you had better pray! You had better have His mark on your door And His seal upon your foreheads.
Children pray, children cry! Seek the Lord before you fly.
When the wicked come breaking in Oh my children watch and pray! Seek Him closely, seek Him dear - Seek Him while you weep and fear.
When the wolves come preaching at the pulpit, Do not swallow wicked lies! Though they bite you, though they trap you Yet they cannot take your soul.
When the Lord comes speaking in your dreams, Oh my children, do His bidding! Though He speak parables and heavenly things, Do not doubt it, for in these last days
We depend on revelation from the word of God, That Word made manifest in Christ and Bible And speaking in our hearts, we know not how, And dreams and visions of the night.
The devil slew a baby in the snow And slays many, but the Lord revived that one - May He revive you after every attack And keep you in His life and grace and truth!
When our Lord comes breaking through the heavens Oh my children, what a day! But, for the Lord to break through in any way, Weep and work and watch and pray!
Children pray, children cry! Seek the Lord before you fly!
When the angels break through the heavens In pairs to gather up your souls, The Lord will break you out of your bodies And take you where there is no pain.
