His Return

One day the graves will open
And the sainted ones will rise.
Ascending to the heavens
To meet Jesus in the skies.
The trumpet will be sounding,
Sounding loud and clear – but
Those whose names are written down
Will have nothing to fear.

One day the clouds will roll back
And Christ Jesus will appear.
He’ll call out for His loved ones
And then they will disappear.
Those that will be left behind
Will cry out with dismay.
Why have we been left here – while
Others are taken away?

That day is fast approaching
And it won’t be very long.
Until Jesus will return
To take His followers home.
Brother, are you ready?
Sister, how about you?
Jesus soon is coming back
But – is He coming back for you?
