Analysis of Storm Of All Storms
Nancy McDonald 1968 (Blytheville, Arkansas)
A beautiful spring day turns to gloom
As tornadoes unleash their catastrophic doom
Much damage will be done many lives it will take
Oh the horror it will leave in its wake
But there is a storm that is coming
That's going to be the storm of all storms
It is written in the Good Book
And with its messages it informs
Informs us of a battle that is going to take place
Worse than any storm you will ever face
The good and the bad it will be in between
Winner takes all can you imagine the scene
Imagine God's wrath compared to all of this
Satan and his followers thrown into the great abyss
Evil will be banished the ungodly shall fall
Replaced with God's glory once and for all
