The Four Horsemen Lyrics

Glen Campbell The Four Horsemen Lyrics

And I saw the white horse
Ridden by a man with bow and arrow
And He wore a golden crown
And He rode a trail so narrow
And He went forth to conqueor all
The liars theives and cheaters
All the weavers of illusion
All the bigots and mistreaters
And the earth was shaken like a old man's hand
And the sun was black as mud
And the oceans moved across the land
And the moon became as blood
And I saw the red horse
And the rider waved a saber
To take peace from all the earth
For destruction was his labor
And he rode out in anger to
Turn brother agaist brother
With poison toward the Nations
To make them all kill one another
And the stars in Heaven fell to earth
Like the fruit of a tree when shaken
By an unkindly wind to be evermore foresaken
And I saw the black horse
And the rider with the balance
To seperate the works of man
His vices from his talents
A measure of wheat for a penny
Three measures of barley in kind
To divide the one from the many
But hurt not the oil and wine
And the heavens parted like a scroll
when it is rolled together
And the mountains were moved out of place
Like a whirlwind blows a feather
And I saw a pale horse
And Death was riding on him
And Hell was right behind him
And no mortal man outshone him
The kings of the earth and the mighty men
The glorious and greedy
Hid themselves in the blackest hole
With the homeless and the needy
And some priests and some television preachers
Laid down with the vile unholy
And some senators and movie stars
Shared a cave with the meek and lowly
And they cried to the mountains
Fall on us! And hide us from the face of Him
Fall on us! And hide us from the face
Hide us from the face of Him
Fall on us!... And hide us from the face of Him
Fall on us! And hide us from the face
Hide us from the face of Him
