THE HORRORS OF HELL


HELL, the prison house of despair;

Here are some things that won't be there:

No flowers will bloom on the banks of hell,

No beauties of nature we love so well;

No comforts of home, music and song,

No friendship of joy will be found in the throng;

No children to brighten the long weary night,

No love nor peace, nor one ray of light;

No blood-washed soul with face beaming bright,

No loving smile in that region of night;

No mercy, no pity, pardon nor grace,

No water, Oh God, what a terrible place!

The pangs of the lost no human can tell,

Not one moment's easy there's no rest in HELL!



HELL, the prison house of despair;

Here are some things that will be there:

Fire and brimstone are there, we know,

For God in His word hath told us so,

Memory, remorse, suffering, and pain,

Weeping and wailing, but all in vain;

Blasphemer, swearer, hater of God,

Christ-rejector while here on earth trod.

Murderer, gambler, drunkard, and liar,

Will have his part in the lake of fire;

The filthy, the vile, the cruel and mean,

What a horrible mob in hell will be seen;

Yes, more than humans on earth can tell,

Are the torments and woes of eternal HELL!
