Very Last Day

Peter, Paul and Mary

Transposer:

Intro :/// Everybody's gonna pray On the very last day When they hear that bell A-Ring the world away Everybody's gonna pray To the heavens on the judgement day Well you can sing about the great King David And you can preach about the wisdom of Saul But the judgement falls on all mankind When the trumpet sounds the call All equal and the same When the Lord, He calls your name Get ready, brothers for that day Everybody's gonna pray On the very last day When they hear that bell Ring the world away Everybody's gonna pray To the heavens on the judgement day Well one day soon all men will stand His words will be heeded in all the land Men shall know and men shall see We all are brothers and we all are free Mankind was made of clay Each of us in the very same way Get ready brothers for that day Everybody's gonna pray On the very last day When they hear that bell A-Ring the world away Everybody's gonna pray To the heaven on the judgement day Well the law is given and the law is known The tale is told and the seed is sown From dust we came and dust well go You know the Lord once told us so Each brother takes his hand Heed the meaning of the Lord's command Get ready brother for that day

Cette chanson évoque le moment ultime où chaque être humain se rassemblera pour prier en réponse à l'appel du Seigneur, à l’aube du jugement dernier. Elle souligne l'idée que, peu importe notre histoire ou nos différences, nous serons tous égaux face à ce grand jour. La mélodie nous rappelle que nous devons être préparés, car chacun de nous est appelé à se tourner vers les cieux. Le contexte qui sous-tend ces paroles est celui de la communauté et de l'unité dans la foi, valorisant l'importance de la solidarité humaine alors que nous faisons face à notre destinée commune. La chanson évoque aussi la fragilité de la vie et le fait que, finalement, nous provenons tous de la même terre et retournerons à elle, soulignant ainsi notre lien indéfectible.
