Thief
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Like a shot in the dark
Like a smokin’ gun
When you least expect
That’s when He’s gonna come
No angel of light
No man from the east
Gonna stand Him up
When time has ceased
God Almighty, nobody gonna sleep
When the stars fall down
He’ll be comin’ like a thief
When they talk of peace
And there just ain’t none
When the sand runs out
Though knowledge increase
In the blink of an eye, like a lightnin’ strike
From the east to the west
Like a thief in the night
Lord, Lord, they gonna wail an’ weep
Aw, when the clouds roll back
He’ll be comin’ like a thief, comin’ like a thief
Two in the field, one won’t go
Two in bed, one left lyin’ cold
Two in the factory, one punchin’ out
With the blast of a horn, with a mighty shout
Gonna reap, just like a field of wheat
Oh, ya better watch an’ pray
He’ll be comin’ like a thief, comin’ like a thief
