[Part I: Intro]
The first of these two songs, "Signs Of The Judgment," is one among the list called "glory songs," and sung especially by the people who believe in the immediate return of the Lord to this earth. There are many verses, different in different sections, but most all referring to some verse in scripture containing a definite prophecy about the second coming.
[Part II: Signs Of The Judgment]
[Verse 1]
I see the signs of the judgment
(Ha!) Jesus said that it would be
(Ha, ha!) I see the sign of the fig tree
Lord, Lord, the time is drawing nigh
[Verse 2]
O if you read Saint Matthew
(Ha!) In the 24th chapter
(Ha, ha!) You'll see the sign of the judgment
Lord, Lord, time is drawing nigh
[Verse 3]
O don't you hear God talking?
(Ha!) He is talking in thunder
(Ha, ha!) He's got the people on the wonder
Lord, Lord, time is drawing nigh
[Verse 1]
I see the signs of the judgment
(Ha!) Jesus said that it would be
(Ha, ha!) I see the sign of the fig tree
Lord, Lord, time is drawing nigh
[Part III: Old-Time Religion]
[Verse 4]
Give me that old-time religion
Give me that old-time religion
Give me that old-time religion
It's good enough for me
[Verse 5]
It was good for our fathers
It was good for our fathers
It was good for our fathers
It's good enough for me
[Verse 6]
It will do when I'm dying
It will do when I'm dying
It will do when I'm dying
It's good enough for me
[Verse 4]
Give me that old-time religion
Give me that old-time religion
Give me that old-time religion
It's good enough for me
