God Is My Blanket

God is my blanket from the cold that shivers my skin 
Jesus is my connection who died gracefully for my sin 
 
The word is the doctrine that gives meaning and shows me the way 
To god the almighty i give worship obedience and praise 
 
On earth as it is in heaven his will shall be done 
For it is more than a just a dream that we overcome 
 
Through the fire the hail and brimstone 
I’ll be waiting for him to take me home
 
It’s a horrible feeling to see the fire and brimstone fall 
It’s a horrible feeling to know that he won’t save your soul 
 
All the mountains will disappear and all the islands will perish 
There won’t be materialistic love and everything that you cherish 
 
He showed you how to live he told you what to do but you thought it 
Was all just a lie 
How have you lived can you prove you forgive will you bow on your 
Knees and testify 
 
The end time is near there is only truth now or fear there’s no way that 
You can run or hide
