LOST SOUL
Watson Family Lyrics

What an awful day (repeat)
The day of judgement is terrible and fearful.

When the judgement comes, (repeat)
The day of reckoning is coming, and everyone will be held accountable for their actions.

And the sinners hear (repeat)
Those who have done wrong will listen as their fate is being proclaimed.

Their eternal doom, (repeat)
They will receive a sentence of never-ending punishment.

At the sad decree (repeat)
The announcement of punishment will be a sorrowful moment for all involved.

They'll depart for aye, (repeat)
They will leave this world forever.

Into endless woe (repeat)
They will suffer without end.

And gloomless woe and gloom.
Their pain and suffering will be constant, with no relief or hope of improvement.

Chorus:
The refrain of the song echoes the feeling of regret and acceptance of one's fate.

I'm paying now (repeat)
The singer is currently experiencing the consequences of their actions.

The penalty, (repeat)
They are suffering the punishment that has been assigned to them.

The unredeemed (that the unredeemed)
Those who have not been forgiven.

Must ever pay; (repeat)
Their punishment will be ongoing and unceasing.

Though for help I cry (repeat)
The singer is regretful and wishes they could change their situation.

It's now in vain, (repeat)
However, their plea for mercy will not be answered.

For alas I'm doomed (repeat)
They accept that they are destined for punishment.

For aye (I'm doomed for aye).
They will suffer forever.

If I could recall (repeat)
The singer wishes they could go back in time and do things differently.

All the years now gone (repeat)
The time that has passed cannot be recovered.

For my Savior's cause, (repeat)
The singer wishes they had spent their life in service of their savior.

I would spend each one; (repeat)
They would do things differently if given the chance.

But they ne'er again (repeat)
However, the past cannot be changed.

Can to me return, (repeat)
The singer cannot go back in time and make amends.

And the task is left, and my task
The singer is left with the feeling that they have left something important undone.

Is left undone (it's left undone).
They have unfinished business that cannot be completed.

Oh I realize (repeat)
The singer understands the gravity of their actions.

But alas too late (repeat)
Unfortunately, it is too late to rectify the situation.

What a dark mistake (repeat)
They regret the terrible decisions they have made.

All my life has been, (repeat)
The singer reflects on their entire life and recognizes the mistakes they have made.

I refused his live (repeat)
The singer rejected the love of their savior.

With a various heart, (repeat)
They made a mistake by turning away from their savior.

And I must pay (repeat)
The singer recognizes that they must suffer the consequences of their actions.

The price of sin (repeat).
They must pay the penalty for their wrongdoing.
