1 Who was saved when heav'n's vast fountains
Did their flood of death begin,
And all flesh on plains and mountains,
Perished in that age of sin?
Only Noah, and his fam'ly, In the ark, by God 'shut in'.
2 Who was saved from direst horror
At that unexpected hour,
Wherein Sodom and Gomorrah
Sank o'er whelmed, to rise no more?­
Lot, the faithful, and his daughters,
Were alone removed to Zoar.
3 We shall fear not then, nor tremble,
When the last dread trump shall sound­
Safely with Him we'll assemble,
Gathering our Redeemer round:
And before Him,by God's mercy,
We shall stand in glory crowned.
