1 Corinthians 15:51-53

• [1Co 15:51] The Great Archangel’s Trump

  The great archangel’s trump shall sound, While twice ten thousand thunders roar Tear up the graves, and cleave the ground, And make the greedy sea restore. The greedy sea shall yield her dead, The earth no more her slain conceal; Sinners shall lift their guilty head, And shrink to see a yawning hell. But we, who now our Lord confess, And faithful to the end endure, Shall stand in Jesus’ righteousness, Stand, as the Rock of ages, sure. We, while the stars from heaven shall fall, And mountains are on mountains hurled, Shall stand unmoved amidst them all, And smile to see a burning world. The earth, and all the works therein, Dissolve, by raging flames destroyed, While we survey the awful scene, And mount above the fiery void. By faith we now transcend the skies, And on that ruined world look down; By love above all height we rise, And share the everlasting throne.

• [1Co 15:51] In The Twinkling Of An Eye

  When the trump of the great archangel Its mighty tones shall sound, And, the end of the age proclaiming, Shall pierce the depths profound; When the Son of Man shall come in His glory To take the saints on high, What a shouting in the skies from the multitudes that rise, Changed in the twinkling of an eye. Refrain Changed in the twinkling of an eye, Changed in the twinkling of an eye, The trumpet shall sound, the dead shall be raised, Changed in the twinkling of an eye. When He comes in the clouds descending, And they who loved Him here, From their graves shall awake and praise Him With joy and not with fear; When the body and the soul are united, And clothed no more to die, What a shouting there will be when each other’s face we see, Changed in the twinkling of an eye. Refrain O the seed that was sown in weakness Shall then be raised in pow’r And the songs of the blood bought millions Shall hail that blissful hour; When we gather safely home in the morning, And night’s dark shadows fly, What a shouting on the shore when we meet to part no more, Changed in the twinkling of an eye. Refrain

• [1Co 15:51] Soon Will Our Savior From Heaven Appear

  Soon will our Savior from Heaven appear, Sweet is the hope and its power to cheer; All will be changed by a glimpse of His face; This is the goal at the end of our race. Refrain Oh, what a change! Oh, what a change! When I shall see His wonderful face! Oh, what a change! Oh, what a change! When I shall see His face! Loneliness changed to reunion complete, Absence exchanged for a place at His feet, Sleeping ones raised in a moment of time, Living ones changed to His image sublime. Refrain Sunrise will chase all the darkness away, Night will be changed to the brightness of day, Tempests will change to ineffable calm, Weeping will change to a jubilant psalm. Refrain Weakness will change to magnificent strength, Failure will change to perfection at length, Sorrow will change to unending delight, Walking by faith change to walking by sight. Refrain

• [1Co 15:51] We Are Going Down The Valley

  We are going down the valley one by one, With our faces tow’rd the setting of the sun; Down the valley where the mournful cypress grows, Where the stream of death in silence onward flows. Refrain We are going down the valley, Going down the valley, Going tow’rd the setting of the sun; We are going down the valley, Going down the valley, Going down the valley one by one. We are going down the valley one by one, When the labors of the weary day are done; One by one, the cares of earth forever past, We shall stand upon the river brink at last. Refrain We are going down the valley one by one: Human comrade you or I will there have none; But a tender hand will guide us lest we fall: Christ is going down the valley with us all. Refrain We are going down the valley one by one: Yet before the shadowed vale may come the dawn, When with rapture we shall gather in the sky; “We shall all be changed,” but some shall never die!

• [1Co 15:52] Day Of Judgment! Day Of Wonders!

  Day of judgment! Day of wonders! Hark! the trumpet’s awful sound, Louder than a thousand thunders, Shakes the vast creation round! How the summons wilt the sinner’s heart confound! See the Judge, our nature wearing, Clothed in majesty divine! You who long for His appearing Then shall say, “This God is mine!” Gracious Savior, own me in that day for Thine! At His call the dead awaken, Rise to life from earth and sea; All the powers of nature shaken By His look, prepares to flee. Careless sinner, what will then become of thee? Horrors, past imagination, Will surprise your trembling heart, When you hear your condemnation, “Hence, accursed wretch, depart! Thou, with Satan and his angels, have thy part!” Satan, who now tries to please you, Lest you timely warning take, When that word is past, will seize you, Plunge you in the burning lake: Think, poor sinner, thy eternal all’s at stake. But to those who have confessèd, Loved and served the Lord below, He will say, “Come near, ye blessèd, See the kingdom I bestow; You forever shall My love and glory know.” Under sorrows and reproaches, May this thought your courage raise! Swiftly God’s great day approaches, Sighs shall then be changed to praise. We shall triumph when the world is in a blaze.
