I went down to the river
I fell down on my knees
Heaven take me if you please
I felt the 7th trumpet sound
I heard the angels sing
Hallelujah Christ our Lord forever reigns
I felt Heaven start to weep
I felt the ground beneath my feet begin to shake
As the fire began to grow
I saw Heaven's hand of judgement
Sitting on the great white throne
As he opened up the book of life
The dead consumed the sea
And every man was judged for sin accordingly
Oh father please forgive me if you do not see my name
He said I'm sorry son it doesn't work that way
I felt Heaven start to weep
I felt the ground beneath my feet begin to shake
As the fire began to grow
I saw Heaven's hand of judgement
Sitting on the great white throne
Oh I saw Heaven's hand of judgement...
Lord I know I'm just a sinner
And I don't deserve to go
But could you find it in your heart
To have some mercy on my soul
Cause I don't want to be cast in the burning lake of fire
When I stand before your judgment hand
On Heaven's great white throne
He said I see you read the stories
But you still refused to see
The blood that Christ shed on the cross at Calvary
Then he opened up the book once more, a tear fell from his eye
He said I've shown you grace and mercy but you must now feel my fire
I felt Heaven start to weep
I felt the ground beneath my feet begin to shake, yeah
As the fire began to grow
I saw Heaven's hand of judgement
I saw Heaven's hand of judgement
I saw Heaven's hand of judgement
Sitting on the great white throne
