Roy Acuff - The Essential Roy Acuff

This World Can't Stand Long

A long time this world has stood
It gets more wicked every day
The maker who created it
Will never let it stand this way

This world can't stand long
Be ready and don't be late
We should know this world can't stand
For it's too full of hate

This world was destroyed before
Because it was so full of sin
And for that very reason now
It's gotta be destroyed again

This world can't stand long
Be ready and don't be late
We should know this world can't stand
For it's too full of hate

Everyone knows this world can't stand
For in the Bible it's plain to see
Fire and brimstone shall rain down
And carry us to eternity

This world can't stand long
Be ready and don't be late
We should know this world can't stand
For it's too full of hate

Let's all give our hearts to God
And let Him lead us by the hand
If we will only trust in Him
He'll lead us beyond the burning sand

This world can't stand long
Be ready and don't be late
We should know this world can't stand
For it's too full of hate
