When He Returns
There's a call that's going out to every nation
A call sent from high on to praise the Lord
We must take the call that's been given
For the time is drawing near
When soon He will be here

When He returns, the trumpet shall resound
And the children of light will be made like Him
And the Church will rise, into the skies
To praise His name eternally

The weary raise their hands in rejoicing
Waiting, for the night has been so long
Heaven will break forth with joyous singing
For the time is almost here
When soon He will be here

When He returns, the trumpet shall resound
And the children of light will be made like Him
And the Church will rise, into the skies
To praise His name eternally

Jesus, make us ready, when the time is right
Lord, just take my hand and lead me to the light

When He returns, the trumpet shall resound
And the children of light will be made like Him
And the Church will rise, into the skies
To praise His name eternally
And the Church will rise, into the skies
To praise His name, we praise His name
We praise His name eternally
