Soon that Day

Soon that day will come
When this life is done
When our dreams and plans shall end
Soon that day shall come
It will surprise some
But watchful comprehend

So awake from sleep
Wade into the deep
And immerse yourself in love
Open up your eyes
Search the eastern skies
He’s returning from above!

We see your plan unfold
You do not withold
Of your presence in this world
Maranatha Lord!
Sound the trumpet’s chord
We prepare for your return.

Prepare us to be watchful
The bridegroom’s on His way
His returning could be any day
So watch and pray
Watch and pray

Lord come take us home
May your Kingdom come
Come and draw us to your side
You’ve prepared a place
For each child of Grace
There we’ll evermore abide
