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
