(Verse 1) Two angels came to Sodom as the sun went down, Lot was sitting by the gate of the town. He rose to meet them, bowed low to the ground, Said, “Come, my lords, spend the night in my house. Wash your feet, rest from the road, Rise early, go where you must go.” They said, “We’ll stay in the square tonight,” But Lot pressed hard till they turned inside. (Pre-Chorus) Before they lay down, the city drew near, Men of Sodom shouting, full of fear, “Bring them out to us, that we may know!” But Lot went out and pleaded at the door. (Chorus) Fire on the plain, mercy in the dawn, The righteous flee while the wicked fall. Don’t look back, don’t turn your eyes, The Lord is judging Sodom tonight. A warning stands in the desert’s vault— Remember Lot’s wife, a pillar of salt. (Verse 2) Lot said, “Do not act so wickedly, friends, I’ve two daughters who’ve never known men. Let me bring them out—do to them as you please, But touch not these men, for they’ve come under my eaves.” They cried, “Stand back! Who made you judge?” They pressed in hard, but the angels struck them blind. They pulled Lot in and closed the door, Said, “Take your family, flee—this place is no more!” (Pre-Chorus) Lot lingered, but mercy took his hand, The angels led him, his daughters, his clan, “Escape for your life, don’t look behind, Flee to the mountains, don’t turn your mind.” (Chorus) Fire on the plain, mercy in the dawn, The righteous flee while the wicked fall. Don’t look back, don’t turn your eyes, The Lord is judging Sodom tonight. A warning stands in the desert’s vault— Remember Lot’s wife, a pillar of salt. (Bridge) Lot said, “O Lord, your servant’s found grace, But I fear the mountains—let me flee to that place. A little city near, it’s small, let it stand.” So Zoar was spared by the Lord’s own hand. The sun had risen when Lot reached the gate, Then sulfur and fire fell down in waves. The smoke rose up like a furnace flame, And Lot’s wife turned—oh, she turned in pain. (Refrain) She looked behind, the city burned, Her heart still bound to what she’d learned. Frozen forever, by sorrow’s fault, She stands in the desert—a pillar of salt. (Final Chorus) Fire on the plain, mercy in the dawn, The righteous flee while the wicked fall. Don’t look back, don’t turn your eyes, The Lord is judging Sodom tonight. From ashes and flame, one truth exalts— Remember Lot’s wife, a pillar of salt. (Outro) Abraham looked toward Sodom afar, Saw the smoke rising under the stars. God remembered Lot, and by His plan, He saved him out of the ruin of man. In the mountain’s shadow, the story is told— Mercy burns brighter than cities of gold.
