I weep for you now

The fool in his heart says "there is no God / and he will not find me out / There's no right, no wrong, no truth anymore / No anchor for the soul." / Pride is the hand that strokes the cat's back / They say "there's nothing you can prove. / We live our lives like gamblers taking chances / We have the right to choose." / The great day of the Lord is near and coming soon / He'll come like a thief in the night / There'll be people getting married, laughing, singing, having a good time / Just getting on with life. / Then suddenly every eye will see Him coming / With all His angels in the sky. / He'll sweep away every cause of evil from the face of the earth / There'll be nowhere left to hide. / I weep for you now, for what's coming upon you. / I weep for you now, for what's coming upon you. / No eye has seen, no ear has heard, nor has the heart conceived / All the things God has prepared for them that love Him. / It's way beyond their wildest dreams / There's no death, no mourning, no crying, no pain / He'll wipe every tear from their eyes / They will see His face and all their questions will be answered / There will be no sense of time. / I weep for you now, for what's coming upon you / The fires of hell were made for the devil and his angels / And those who choose to go / There's no light, no joy, no sound of laughter there / No music to soothe the soul / Only the sound of weeping and crying, grinding of teeth / Over how things could've been / Consumed by the flames of remorse and regret / They'll be outside looking in / I weep for you now, for what's coming upon you / I weep for you now, for what's coming upon you / The wedding feast of the Lamb has come, and His bride is ready / She's beautiful to see / She's dressed in fine linen, spotless, clean and bright / Showing all her righteous deeds. / There's music and laughter, singing and dancing, great celebrations / As they enter through the door / And like all true lovers who long to be together / They will forever more. / I weep for you now, for what's coming upon you / I weep for you now, for what's coming upon you.
