Lyrics Uncle Tupelo

Uncle Tupelo

Atomic Power

Do you fear this man's invention

That they call atomic power?

We all in great confusion

Do we know the time or hour?

When a terrible explosion

May rain down upon our land

Leaving horrible destruction

Blotting out the works of man

Are you, 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

Be prepared to meet the Lord

When the mushroom of destruction

Falls there is a shielding 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, 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?
