Oh
oh people of the earth
Listen
to the warning the seer he said
Beware
the storm that gathers here
Listen
to the wise man
I
dreamed I saw on a moonlit stair
Spreading
his hand to the multitude there
A
man who cried for a love gone stale
And
ice cold hearts of charity bare
I
watched as fear took the old man's gaze
Hopes
of the young in troubled graves
'I
see no day' I heard him say
So
grey is the face of every mortal
Oh
oh people of the earth!
'Listen
to the warning' the prophet he said
For
soon the cold of night will fall
Summoned
by your own hand
Ah
ah children of the land
Quicken
to the new life take my hand
Fly
and find the new green bough
Return
like the white dove
He
told of death as a bone white haze
Taking
the lost and the unloved babes
Late
too late all the wretches run
These
kings of beasts now counting their days
From
mother's love is the son estranged
Married
his own his precious gain
The
earth will shake in two will break
And
death all round will be your dowry
Oh
oh people of the earth
Listen
to the warning the seer he said
For
those who hear and mark my words
Listen
to the good plan
Oh
oh oh oh and two by two my human zoo
They'll
be running for to come
Running
for to come out of the rain
Oh
flee for your lives who heed me not
Let
all your treasures make you fear for your life
Deceive
you not the fires of hell will take you
Should
death await you
Ah
people can you hear me?
And
now I know and now I know
And
now I know and now I know
That
you can hear me
And
now I know and now I know
And
now I know now I know
Now
I know now I know
Now
I know now I know
Now
I know
The
earth will shake in two will break
Death
all around around around around
Around
around around around
Now
I know now I know
Now
I know now I know
Now
I know now I know
Now
I know now I know
Now
I know now I know
Now
I know
Wo
wo wo wo wo wo wo wo wo
Listen
to the wise listen to the wise listen to the wise
Listen
to the wise listen to the wise man

God
gave you grace to purge this place
And
peace all around may be your fortune
Oh
oh children of the land
Love
is still the answer take my hand
The
vision fades a voice I hear
Listen
to the madman!
But
still I fear and still I dare not
Laugh
at the madman!
