Lyrics for Atomic Power

Do you fear this man's invention That they call atomic power? We all in great confusion Do we know the time or hour? When a terrible explosion May rain down upon our land Leaving horrible destruction Blotting out the works of man Are you, are you ready For that great atomic power? Will you rise and meet your Savior in the air? Will you shout or will you cry When the fire rains from on high? Are you ready for that great atomic power? There is one way to escape Be prepared to meet the Lord When the mushroom of destruction Falls there is a shielding sword He will surely stand beside you And you'll never taste of death For your soul will fly to safety And eternal peace and rest Are you, are you ready For that great atomic power? Will you rise and meet your Savior in the air? Will you shout or will you cry When the fire rains from on high? Are you ready for that great atomic power?
