2) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
They realize they'll never enter Heaven's Pearly Gate.
They would not repent of sin, and on Christ, believe.
Free Gift of Salvation there, they would not receive.
3) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
They believed the Devil's Lies; they'd never see this date.
Now, they stand in terror there, at The Great White Throne.
No one to defend them there, naked and alone.
4) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
The carrot of sin dangled there, and they took the bait.
They preferred a life of darkness, far more than the light.
And so, their eternity, will be dark as night.
5) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
They see that their suffering, never will abate.
They would not bow eagerly; now, they are compelled.
By the Truth there of God's Word; with no lies to tell.
6) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
Preaching of The Gospel Truth; in life, they did berate.
Saying it was foolishness, stupidity, and dumb.
God's Invitation, it is closed; and it's too late to come.
7) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
The truth of all the warnings there; they can now relate.
They wish they had a second chance, to see The Cross again.
But, they spurned The Gospel Truth, preferring life of sin.
8) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
Toward The Gospel, they believed, it was speech with hate.
They sorely did detest the fact, The Lord, He made The Rules.
Professing themselves to be wise, they were truly fools.
9) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
They believed the Devil's Lie, that they had time to wait.
Without warning, death did come; their error, realized.
As they saw the fires of Hell, the horror in their eyes.
10) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
They enjoyed their life of sin, thinking all was great.
They got away with many thing, thought they were home free.
But, they'll pay for every sin, for all eternity.
11) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
They thought Hell a sin orgy, to fully consumate,
Their desire for sin unbridled, there without restraint.
Now, they see their darkened soul, full of holes and taints.
12) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
They felt they controlled their lives, things they could dictate.
They thought eternal torment was, a joke in every way.
They now see that they can never, their huge sin debt, pay.
13) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
Like a caged up animal, in a kennel crate.
No longer free to whatever they fully desired.
They will spend eternity in The Lake Of Fire.
14) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
There will now be no delay, judgment will not wait.
All their cries for mercy there, now before The Lord.
They waited too long to repent; all their cries, ignored.
15) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
Their eyes open to their doom, fully dialate.
They hear terrifying words from Christ on His Throne;
''Depart from Me, to Lake Of Fire; for you, I've never known''.
16) Cries for mercy from the lost, too little, and too late.
I pray that you won't be like these; you'll avoid this fate.
Repent of sin, make Christ Your Saviour, and your Lord today.
For there into Heaven's joy, He is the Only Way.
