The Land of Endless Pain (Hell)

There is a Land of Endless Pain,
Created long ago.
Tis such a place, I know, as I
Should never wish to go
With creepy, slimy, gloomy things
That dwell in fear and fright,
A lake of fire and devils too
In never-ending night.

An angel they call Lucifer,
With false hopes and conceit,
Set out to conquer Heaven's throne
And suffered great defeat.
Beyond the planets and the stars
The cursed angel fell,
Till, landing in the boiling pit,
He populated hell.

And all who seek, of their own works,
God's glory to attain,
Shall find themselves thus cast into
The Land of Endless Pain.
So listen closely now, my child,
And mark the words I say.
To keep thyself from equal fate,
Hear God, and watch and pray.
