Glad Day!

Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:  for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.  For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.

Jesus may come today, Glad day! Glad day!
And I would see my Friend,
Troubles and trials would end,
If Jesus should come today.

I may go Home today, Glad day! Glad day!
Seemeth I hear their song,
Hail to the radiant throng!
If I should go Home today.

Why should I anxious be? Glad day! Glad day!
Lights appear on the shore,
Storms will affright nevermore,
For He is "at hand" today.

Faithful I'll be today, Glad day! Glad day!
And I will freely tell,
Why I should love Him so well,
For He is my All today.


For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:  and the dead in Christ shall rise first:  Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.  Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

Jesus said, In My Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
