And many of them that sleep
in the dust of the earth
shall awake,
some to everlasting life,
some . . .
in the dust of the earth
shall awake,
some to everlasting life,
some . . .
Fuck the shame and everlasting contempt part!
We can wish that on the Republicans,
but it isn’t necessary—their
time will come,
we don’t know when.
We can wish that on the Republicans,
but it isn’t necessary—their
time will come,
we don’t know when.
And they that be wise
shall shine with the brightness
of the firmament;
and they that turn many to rightousness
as the stars for ever and ever.
shall shine with the brightness
of the firmament;
and they that turn many to rightousness
as the stars for ever and ever.
You will shine, of course
you’ll shine.
If Jesus keeps you polished, you will shine.Mid the trying things of life,
mid the struggle and the strife,
if you really have the blessing
you will shine.
