Johnny Cash - Matthew Twenty-Four (Is Knocking at the Door) lyrics

I heard on the radio there's rumors of war

People getting ready for battle

And there may be just one more

I heard about an earthquake

And the toll it took away

These are the signs of the times we're in today.

CHORUS

Matthew twenty-four is knocking at the door,

And there can't be too much more to come to pass.

Matthew twenty-four is knocking at the door,

And a day or one more could be the last.

A great bear from the northland has risen from his sleep,

And the Army ranks in red are near two hundred million deep.

The young and old now prophesy a coming

Prince of Peace

And last night I dreamed of lightning in the east.

REPEAT CHORUS
