He's Coming To Take Me Away

(album: Rejoice - 1980)

Someday this life will all be past and gone
I'll be so happy being in my brand new home
Troubles and doubts, they all shall cease to be
This is a promise the Lord has made to me

So I'm watching the weather, reading every post-it sing
They all let me know the Lord's coming is neigh
If you miss me you can't find me nowhere
Just look out for me in glory, I'll be there

Because the Lord is coming to take me away
Morning, night or noonday
Coming back to claim me as His own
It will be sweeter as a chariot ride
When He takes me home to the sky
And I know that we'll be together again
Lord, we'll be together again
Lord, we'll be together again

Because the Lord is coming to take me away
Morning, night or noonday
Coming back to claim me as His very own
It will be sweeter than a chariot ride
When He takes me home to the sky
And I know we'll be together again
We'll be together again
We'll be together again

There'll be no more dying that morning
We're gonna be together
When we all gonna get to heaven
We're gonna have a good time
When we all see Jesus
We're gonna have a good time
There'll be no more dying that morning
We're gonna have a good time

Coming to take me away
Morning, night or noonday
Coming back to claim me as His own
It will be sweeter than a chariot ride
When He takes me home to the sky
And I know we'll be together again
Together forever

Coming to take me away
Morning, night or noonday
Coming back to claim Shirley as His very own
It will be sweeter than a chariot ride
When He takes me home to the sky
And I know we'll be together again
Together forever

Jesus is coming to take me away
Morning, night or noonday
Coming back to claim me as His very own
