G                         C             G
Quickly the days that are numbered pass by
G                                          D
Quickly the days of God's judgement  draws nigh
   G                        C      G
So heedless of danger we're living today
                           D        G               
God's love and mercy we're throwing away
           C
Men are so busy
              G
With worldly achievments
             
The mercy of Jesus
            D
They daily downtrod
           C
God in his Heaven
                     G
He must look down in pity
                  D
On those who have carelessley
                 G   C   G     D       G   C   G
Forgotten  their God
G                                  C            G
Well he warned of the dangers that lie in their path
G                                        D
They heed not his mercy and kindle God's wrath
    G                         C          G 
The pleasure of this world is their only care
                                 D               G
For where you have pleasure their hearts will be there
           C
Men are so busy
              G
With worldly achievments
             
The mercy of Jesus
            D
They daily downtrod
           C
God in his Heaven
                     G
He must look down in pity
                   D
On those who have carelessley
                 G  
Forgotten  their God

SOLO

G                            C           G
He said that his kingdom was not of this world
G                                   D
So what is the profit of silver and gold
   G                          C               G
So cheap it will seem on that great judgement day
                               D       G
Whebe fire and great heat will melt it away
           C
Men are so busy
              G
With worldly achievments
             
The mercy of Jesus
            D
They daily downtrod
           C
God in his Heaven
                     G
He must look down in pity
                       D
On those who have carelessley
                 G  C  G     
Forgotten  their God
