Do you fear this man's invention that they call atomic power?
Are we all in great confusion, do we know the time or hour?
When a terrible explosion may rain down upon our land
Deep and horrible destruction blotting out the works of man
Are you ready for that great atomic power?
Will you rise and meet your Savior in the air?
Will you shout, or will you cry when the fire rains from on high?
Are you ready for that great atomic power?
There is one way to escape it, prepare to meet the Lord
Give your heart and soul to Jesus, He will be your shield and sword
He will surely stand beside you, and you'll never taste of death
For your soul will fly to safety and eternal peace and rest
Are you ready for that great atomic power?
Will you rise and meet your Savior in the air?
Will you shout, or will you cry when the fire rains from on high?
Are you ready for that great atomic power?
There's an army who can conquer all the enemy's great band
It's a regiment of Christians guided by the Savior's hand
When the mushroom of destruction falls in all its fury great
God will surely save his children from that awful, awful fate
Are you ready for that great atomic power?
Will you rise and meet your Savior in the air?
Will you shout, or will you cry when the fire rains from on high?
Are you ready for that great atomic power?
