Thread Name: Lyr ADD: No Hiding Place
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: No Hiding Place
No hiding place, down here (down there)
There's no hiding place, down there (no hiding place)
You know I went to the rock to hide my face
But the rock cried out: No hiding place!
There's no hiding place down there (down there)

You know the sinners 're gonna be running
At the knowledge of their fate
They'll run to the rocks and the mountains
But their prayers will be too late
Yeah, you know they forgot about Jesus
Not knowing the end was nigh
But they'll be running, trying to find a hiding place
When it comes their time to die.

No hiding place - on the mountain
No hiding place - in the waters
No hiding place down here (no hiding place), yeah!
I went to the rock to hide my face
But the rock cried out: No hiding place!
There's no hiding place
Down here (Down there)

When the world catch on fire
There'll be (no hiding place)
Yeah, when the waters starts boiling
There'll be no hiding place
When the lighting starts flashing
There'll be no hiding place
Oh, when the thunder starts rolling
There'll be no hiding place

Can't you see old gambler running
Saying 'Lord, save my soul'

Transcribed from the singing on the tv show Babylon 5, Season 3, Episode 20. First broadcast 10/7/1996. A very good performance with variant words. On a personal note, this is the first time I encountered this song.

See the video of the song online here:
