LAST NIGHT

by

Rose McMahan

Somebody went to sleep
last night
Never again to waken,
Before the sun rose over
the mountain
Their soul was required
and taken.
Somebody flew on angel wings
True and swift through
the night
Where Jesus the savior
was waiting
In that land of glorious light. Somebody went to sleep
last night
Never again to rise
Oh, what horror awaited
When next they opened
their eyes.
Flames of torment consumed
them
Everlasting, without fail. Somebody went to Heaven
last night
And somebody went to Hell!
