By Kingdom Come

As though the sound of God snapping his thumb I said to myself, by kingdom come This will be the end of ourselves and our earth There will be no more death and no more birth To the force of GOD we all will succumb As we will say to ourselves, by kingdom come That time will arrive, when we will see our last dawn All that we knew and loved will be forever gone Taps are blown and there will be a beating of the drum We all will say to ourselves, by kingdom come This, we will know will be the end of our days Along with our deeds undone and our evil ways Upon a harp, the final note an angel will strum Then we will know to ourselves, by kingdom come All that we can expect will be our own death As we choke away on regrets, and our very last breath But all that counts is where we have come from And where we will go, will be by kingdom come.
