[00:02.78] "And I heard as it were the noise of thunder

[00:07.56] One of the four beasts saying, come and see

[00:11.02] And I saw, and behold a white horse"

[00:15.27] ♪

[00:25.37] There's a man going around taking names

[00:30.16] And he decides who to free and who to blame

[00:35.46] Everybody won't be treated all the same

[00:40.50] There will be a golden ladder reaching down

[00:46.92] When the man comes around

[00:53.27] The hairs on your arm will stand up

[00:58.33] At the terror in each sip and in each sup

[01:03.40] Will you partake of that last offered cup?

[01:08.18] Or disappear into the potter's ground

[01:14.02] When the man comes around?

[01:18.53] Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers

[01:22.79] One hundred million angels singing

[01:28.10] Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum

[01:34.21] Voices calling and voices crying

[01:39.25] Some are born and some are dying

[01:43.77] It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come

[01:48.29] And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree

[01:53.88] The virgins are all trimming their wicks

[01:58.68] The whirlwind is in the thorn tree

[02:03.99] It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks

[02:11.15] 'Til Armageddon, no shalam, no shalom

[02:15.95] Then the father hen will call his chickens home

[02:21.29] The wise man will bow down before the throne

[02:25.80] And at his feet, they'll cast the golden crowns

[02:32.19] When the man comes around

[02:36.18] Whoever is unjust, let him be unjust still

[02:40.97] Whoever is righteous, let him be righteous still

[02:46.00] Whoever is filthy, let him be filthy still

[02:51.06] Listen to the words long written down

[02:56.62] When the man comes around

[03:00.61] Hear the trumpets, hear the pipers

[03:05.43] One hundred million angels singing

[03:10.47] Multitudes are marching to the big kettledrum

[03:16.58] Voices calling and voices crying

[03:21.63] Some are born and some are dying

[03:26.14] It's Alpha and Omega's kingdom come

[03:30.66] And the whirlwind is in the thorn tree

[03:36.51] The virgins are all trimming their wicks

[03:41.02] The whirlwind is in the thorn tree

[03:46.10] It's hard for thee to kick against the pricks

[03:50.77] In measured hundred weight and penny pound

[03:56.61] When the man comes around

[04:09.62] "And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts

[04:13.08] And I looked and behold, a pale horse

[04:16.28] And his name that sat on him was Death

[04:18.92] And Hell followed with him"
