Ere Long the Veil Will Rend in Twain

Lyrics

1. Ere long the veil will rend in twain,
The king descend with all his train;
The earth shall shake with awful fright,
And all creation feel his might.

2. The trump of God, it long shall sound,
And raise the nations under ground,
Throughout the vast domains of heav'n
The voice echoes, the sound is given.

3. Lift up your heads ye saints in peace,
The Savior comes for your release;
The day of the redeemed has come,
The saints shall all be welcomed home.

4. Behold the church, it soars on high,
To meet the saints amid the sky;
To hail the King in clouds of fire,
And strike and tune the immortal lyre.

5. Hosannah now the trump shall sound,
Proclaim the joys of heav'n around,
When all the saints together join,
In songs of love, and all divine.

6. With Enoch here we all shall meet,
And worship at Messiah's feet,
Unite our hands and hearts of love,
And reign on thrones with Christ above.

7. The city that was seen of old,
Whose walls were jasper, and streets gold,
We'll now inherit throned in might:
The father and the Son's delight.

8. Celestial crowns we shall receive,
And glories great out God shall give,
While loud hosannahs we'll proclaim,
And sound aloud our Savior's name.

9. Our hearts and tongues all joined in one,
A loud hosannah to proclaim,
While all the heav'ns shall shout again,
And all creation say, Amen.

10. Prepare my heart, prepare my tongue,
To join this glorious, heav'nly throng;
To hail the Bridegroom from above,
And join the band in songs of love.
