The Four Horsemen |
And I saw the white horse, ridden by a man with bow and arrow |
And he wore a golden crown and he rode a trail so narrow |
And he went forth to conquer all the liars, thieves and cheaters; |
All the weavers of illusion; |
all the bigots and mistreaters; |
And the earth was shakin' like an old man’s hand and the sun was black as mud; |
And the oceans moved across the land and the moon became as blood |
And I saw a red horse and a rider with a saber; |
To take peace from all the earth, for destruction was his labor |
And he rode out in anger to turn brother against brother; |
With poison for the nations to make them all kill one another |
And the stars of heaven fell to earth like the fruit of a tree that’s shaken; |
By an unkindly wind, to be ever more forsaken |
And I saw the black horse and the rider with the balance; |
To separate the works of man; |
his vices from his talents |
A measure of wheat for a penny, three measures of barley in kind |
To divide the one from the many, But hurt not the oil and wine |
And the heavens parted like a scroll, when it is rolled together |
And the mountains were moved out of place; |
Like a whirlwind blows a feather |
And I saw a pale horse, and Death was riding on him |
And Hell was right behind him, and no mortal man outshone him |
The kings of the earth and the mighty men; |
The glorious and greedy |
Hid themselves in the blackest hole, with the homeless and the needy |
And some priests and some television preachers, laid down with the vile unholy |
And some senators and movie stars |
Shared a cave with the meek and lowly |
And they cried to the mountains |
Fall on us! |
And hide us from the face of Him |
Fall on us! |
And hide us from the face |
Face |
Hide us from the face of Him |
Fall on us! |
And hide us from the face of Him |
Fall on us! |
And hide us from the face |
Hide us from the face of Him |
