Lyrics

Verse 1:

Troublesome times are here, filling men's hearts with fear; Freedom we all hold dear, now is at stake.

Humbling your heart to God, saves from the chast'ning rod. Seek the way pilgrim's trod. Christians awake!

Chorus:

Jesus is coming soon, morning or night or noon; Many will meet their doom; trumpets will sound.

All of the dead shall rise; righteous meet in the skies; Going where no one dies, heaven-ward bound.

Verse 2: (not often included in recordings)

Love of so many cold; losing their home of gold; This in God’s Word is told; evils abound.

When these signs come to pass, nearing the end at last, It will come very fast; trumpets will sound. Verse 3:Troubles will soon be o’er; happy forevermore, When we meet on that shore, free from all care. Rising up in the sky, telling this world goodbye; Homeward we then will fly, glory to share. [3]
