Tee he!! I'm sure that every child sitting around the camp fire wants to sing about the end of the world. What's more fun than that?

Do you know that there is a lovely fanzine called Xenofilkia, run by a lovely person named Lee Gold (she's easy to find if you google her), and that she may very well like this filk? Hint hint send it to her!

Giggles. And ducks, just in case there's any lightning around here...

Nice choice of words, not to mention tune.
I'm sure I'd like this on my campfire song list ^^.
God's blessings to you.

One word. Wow...

So very true. So very true...

This is such an amazing paraphrase version that it's literally shocking...You wrote it so well, I wouldn't believe that it was fanfiction. It sounds more like a younger version of a song book...

Very awesome job, dude. This is astounding work here...

Interesting choice of tune. I never thought you could use 'She'll be coming around the mountain' for this until now.

That was fantastic! Not to mention extremely creative. What made you think of it? Your "For those who like an apocolyptic note in their campfire songs" description was great. And of course the best part about the song is that it's true. Scary, but very true. I love this line from the last verse: "Keep the faith and hiold it steady." The whole song (and of course the book on which it's based) is an awesome reminder of things to come. If I ever have the chance to sing campfire songs again, I just might sing this one :)

Cute. I like it. :) I was amused slightly at my reaction to the 4th to last stanza, b/c I'm not sure yet what I think about predestination and election vs. selection vs. free will but... books and theses by better thinkers than me have been written about it all so I shall not use this review space to expound. The rhymes were all not awkward, which can be a difficult feat, so I commend you.

Catchy! Good job on the rhyme and meter and rhythm...

'Cuz I do set out to read 'em when they comes,
Yes, I do set out to read 'em when they comes,
Just as soon as they are posted,
On FanFicNet they're hosted,
I do set out to read 'em when they comes...

Your verses, that is... :D

That was great! the only line I didn't like was "and just ordinary Angels" not that I can think of anything better.
