IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE
In the twinkling of an eye
The trumpet shall sound
Christ’s Church eternally gone
Raptured home above
No more sorrow no more cares
No more tears or pain
No more sighing for our home
Heaven’s treasures gained
Done with this world and its din
Done with battles fierce
Done with temptations and strife
Victorious at last
We shall wear a golden crown
And a robe so white
With the Angels praises sing
All eternity
Do not to temptations yield
Lest you lose your soul
Guard your loins quit ye like men
We shall win at last
Christ the Lord will see us through
No matter the test
Travel on never give up
Though the road be rough
While you prepare and I do
This old world to leave
Let’s reach out to sinful souls
So they’ll come in too
I will look for you up there
And you’ll look for me
We shall not be missing there
In our home on high. AMEN
