"7 Days of Woe" is a gripping and prophetic anthem that delves into the apocalyptic visions described in the Bible's Book of Revelation.

In the face of these trials, the song explores themes of fear, perseverance, and hope, echoing the calls for repentance and salvation found throughout Scripture.
​
The pre-chorus captures the anticipation of prophetic fulfillment as seen in Matthew 24:29-31, with signs in the heavens and the trumpets heralding judgment. The chorus underscores the inescapable reality of divine wrath, weaving in imagery of angels and demons battling in the skies, akin to the spiritual warfare described in Revelation 12:7-9.
​
Amidst the despair, the song offers hope in its bridge and outro, reflecting the promise of a new heaven and new earth as prophesied in Revelation 21:1-4. It concludes with a powerful reminder of God’s ultimate triumph over evil, encouraging listeners to hold fast to their faith during tribulation.

"7 Days of Woe" serves as both a warning and a call to prepare for the coming days, merging powerful biblical references with evocative storytelling to inspire reflection and spiritual vigilance.
Lyrics
[Verse]
Darkness falls, the trumpets sound,
Seven seals break, the judgments rain down,
Four horsemen ride, bringing dread and fear,
The end is near, the time is here.
Wars and rumors, spreading death and despair,
Famine and pestilence, the burdens we bear,
Souls under the altar, crying out for peace,
But the wrath of the Lamb, it will not cease.
[Verse]
Waters turn to blood, and the sun burns black,
Mountains fall to pieces, no turning back,
Locusts rise from the abyss, torment and sting,
In the heart of chaos, the beast is king.
False prophets speak, spreading fear and lies,
Mark of the beast, seen in their eyes,
Nations crumble, as the plagues unfold,
Hearts turn cold, as the end is foretold.
[Pre-Chorus]
Signs in the heavens, can you feel the dread?
Prophecies unfolding, the living and the dead,
The time is now, the trumpets blow,
Brace yourself for the days of woe.
[Chorus]
7 days of woe, feel the darkness rise,
Angels and demons, tearing through the skies,
Judgment is here, no place to hide,
7 days of woe, in the final tide.
[Verse]
Thunder rolls, and the lightning strikes,
In the battle of the ages, who will fight?
In the valley of decision, we stand alone,
In the face of doom, we find our home.
Trumpets sounding, the final call,
In the reign of terror, we stand tall,
From the ashes of despair, hope will rise,
In the light of the Lamb, we'll see the skies.
[Verse]
Seas turn to fire, and the stars fall down,
In the heart of the storm, we won't drown,
Babylon falls, and the wicked weep,
In the final hour, no secrets to keep.
New heaven, new earth, in the aftermath,
From the wreckage of sin, we find our path,
Eternal kingdom, where the light will glow,
After 7 days of woe, His love will flow.
[Pre-Chorus]
Signs in the heavens, can you feel the dread?
Prophecies unfolding, the living and the dead,
The time is now, the trumpets blow,
Brace yourself for the days of woe.
[Chorus]
7 days of woe, feel the darkness rise,
Angels and demons, tearing through the skies,
Judgment is here, no place to hide,
7 days of woe, in the final tide.
[Verse]
The trumpet's blast, a deafening roar,
Evil’s grip will be no more,
The throne of God, a radiant blaze,
Through the storm, His banner raised,
The faithful rise, their voices sing,
To the Lamb of God, our eternal King.
[Outro]
7 days of woe, the end is near,
In the heart of the storm, we feel no fear,
From the ashes, we’ll arise,
In the new dawn, we’ll see paradise.
