The trumpet shall sound!
And the dead shall arise!
And those who know Jesus
Will fly to the skies.
And those left behind
Will look in dismay,
Because they didn't get ready
For the coming Judgement Day.
But Jesus has promised,
To those who look for Him,
He will come back to earth
And take them to heaven;
And forever they will live
In wonder and joy
In the presence of God
Forever and ever! and ever and ever!
Now, you'd better get ready,
'Cos time's running short!
Darkness is coming,
There's a war being fought!
Your life is very precious,
Eternity's for real.
The devil's on the prowl,
Your soul he wants to steal.
So you'd better get sorted;
You've got to get right!
You'll be lost in the darkness
Looking for some light;
Just call on His name,
Don't waste another minute;
God's kingdom's right near you,
You've got to get in it!
For Jesus has promised
To those who look for Him
He will come back to earth
And take them to heaven;
And forever they will live
In wonder and joy
In the presence of God
Forever and ever! and ever and ever!
