Tune: Battle Hymn
(\'Mine eyes have seen the glory\')
*******
O the trumpets will blast when the time it shall sure be at hand
For the Lord to come, return, and then will take back all His land
He will fight for our home, but the Devil he will still refuse
The ground to yield or lose
Chorus
He shall return, O be ready
Waiting hearts be sure and steady
Firm in hope and faith for soon we
By grace His face shall see
But all that is holy shall be returned, it so be destined
That the evil one shall lose, and all his powers must rescind
The trumpets then they will blast out at the return of the Lord
According to His word - Chorus
So be ready to praise Him and then to receive your reward
Kneel down, sing loud as you can, and give fine praises to your Lord
To welcome and to worship Him, He be the blessed Son of Man
Compare no other can - Chorus
He came to earth, and lived and died, it was for sake of the bride
Now He lives again for ever, with Him we shall e\'er reside
In our home in heaven, trumpets sound, announcing day-star bright
Rapture, eternal light! - Chorus
